| Summary | "Haworth's" by Frances Hodgson Burnett is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Jem Haworth, a man who has risen from humble beginnings to become the owner of "Haworth Iron Works," a significant business in the town. The narrative explores themes of ambition, the complexities of social class, and the personal histories of various characters, including Stephen Murdoch, the son of a failed inventor, and Janey Briarley, the daughter of a workman whose father struggles with alcoholism. The opening of the book introduces us to Jem Haworth, reflecting on his past and the significant changes in his life over the past twenty years. As he encounters old workmen who assisted him during a pivotal moment years ago, we learn about his determination to succeed and his nature as a strong-willed leader. Also introduced is Stephen Murdoch, whose father, an inventor, has faced years of struggle and failure. The narrative hints at the intertwining fates between these characters and the impact of their shared histories, setting up a story filled with emotional depth and societal critique as it unfolds.
