Summary "The Cottage on the Fells" by H. De Vere Stacpoole is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Richard Hellier, a briefless barrister, and his infatuation with Mademoiselle Cécile Lefarge, a mysterious and enchanting woman burdened by her father's infamous past. The narrative explores themes of love, social status, and the impact of one's past choices. The opening of the novel introduces us to Hellier, who is recovering from influenza in Boulogne. His interactions with Comyns, a wealthy acquaintance, set the stage for his feelings of inadequacy and longing. Hellier deeply admires Cécile, whom he met at the Hotel des Bains, but he is aware of a significant barrier between them, tied to her father's tragic history as a purported murderer. This layering of romantic tension against a backdrop of societal judgment and personal demons establishes a poignant tone that draws readers into both Hellier's internal struggles and the unfolding tragedy surrounding Cécile. As he navigates his emotions and the implications of their connection, the stage is set for a deeply compelling tale. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
