| Summary | "The Luck of the Dudley Grahams" by Alice Calhoun Haines is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the lives of the Dudley Graham family, particularly focusing on the struggles they face after the death of their father, who was an inventor. The narrative is presented through the diary entries of Elizabeth Graham, the eldest daughter, as she navigates family responsibilities, societal challenges, and the dynamics of poverty while remaining hopeful for a brighter future. At the start of the novel, Elizabeth introduces her family, consisting of her mother and three siblings, who are trying to cope with their father's passing and the financial hardships that ensued. The family has begun keeping boarders to sustain themselves, but tensions arise from both the demands of their new lifestyle and their socio-economic status. As Elizabeth writes in her diary, we see glimpses of the family members' personalities, their dreams, and their fears, most poignantly concerning their sickly younger brother, Robin. The narrative sets a tone of resilience and humor amidst trials, hinting at the greater adventures and conflicts that are sure to unfold throughout the book.
