Summary "The Attic Guest" by Robert E. Knowles is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story opens in a quaint Southern town, focusing primarily on the life of Helen Randall, an eighteen-year-old girl who is navigating her first experiences with love and societal expectations, all set against the backdrop of an upcoming visit from a minister. The narrative weaves together themes of youthful innocence, burgeoning romance, and the complexities of family dynamics in a traditional Southern setting. The opening of the novel presents a lively dialogue among Helen's family members as they prepare for the arrival of their guest, expected to be a minister from the Presbytery meeting. Helen's mother and uncle engage in humorous debates about the accommodations for the incoming elder, while Helen herself is more preoccupied with attending a dance and her growing feelings for Charlie Giddens, a young man who visits her often. The chapter effectively sets the stage for Helen’s inner turmoil and excitement, hinting at the romantic entanglements and personal growth she is likely to face as the story unfolds.
