Summary: "Phyllis" by Duchess is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around a young girl named Phyllis Vernon, who is navigating the challenges of adolescence within her family dynamics and social environment. As an unconventional character, she feels overshadowed by her beautiful sister Dora and struggles with her own identity while longing for the attention of Mr. Carrington, the new landlord. The opening portion of "Phyllis" introduces us to the Vernon family, where Phyllis is depicted as the awkward middle child, contrasting sharply with her siblings in both looks and temperament. We witness her humorous interactions with her brother Billy and sister Dora, particularly surrounding the arrival of Mr. Carrington, who stirs romantic ambitions and family rivalries. Phyllis's candid thoughts and observations add a layer of charm and wit as she reflects on her family's eccentricities and her own place within them. As the narrative unfolds, the groundwork is laid for romantic entanglements and personal growth, setting the stage for Phyllis's journey of self-discovery amidst the complexities of love and familial expectations.
