| Summary | "Viola Gwyn" by George Barr McCutcheon is a novel that appears to have been written during the late 19th century. The story seems to delve into complex familial relationships and lingering resentments, centering on the character Kenneth Gwynne, a young boy who experiences deep emotional turmoil after learning of his mother’s death and the circumstances surrounding it, particularly the perceived betrayal by Rachel Carter, the woman his father ran away with. The opening of the novel introduces Kenneth Gwynne, who, at the tender age of five, grapples with loss and betrayal after his father leaves for war and his mother dies. Raised by his grandparents, he is taught to despise Rachel Carter, whom he holds responsible for his mother's heartbreak and death. As the narrative progresses, Kenneth's bitterness is intertwined with vivid recollections of his childhood and the injustices he faced. In tandem, there is an impending sense of adventure as he embarks on a journey to Indiana, where he encounters a stranger, setting the stage for new relationships and further emotional discoveries. This initial glimpse into his formative years establishes a foundation for the themes of love, resentment, and the quest for identity that the novel will likely explore.
