| Summary | "The Master of St. Benedict's, Vol. 1" by Alan St. Aubyn is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around Anthony Rae, the Master of St. Benedict's, who reflects on his long and accomplished life filled with ambition, success, and love. The narrative soon introduces Lucy Rae, the daughter of Anthony’s deceased nephew, who arrives at the Master's lodge following a family tragedy, confronting her own aspirations and the challenges of independence. The opening of the novel establishes a rich backdrop of academia and family history, introducing readers to Anthony Rae’s life journey from a humble beginnings to scholarly prestige, alongside the personal struggles of his niece, Lucy. Lucy’s narrative begins with her dealing with her father's recent death and her determined pursuit of an education at a women's college, despite the weight of familial expectations and societal norms. The tension escalates as Lucy grapples with her ambitions while navigating personal relationships and the complexity of her new environment, setting the stage for themes of aspiration, gender roles, and personal growth.
