Summary | "You Never Know Your Luck; being the story of a matrimonial deserter. Volume 1." by Gilbert Parker is a novel written during the early 20th century. The story primarily revolves around the character of Shiel Crozier, an Irishman whose past remains shrouded in mystery and whose current life in the Canadian prairies is marked by both triumphs and tribulations. It explores themes of love, sacrifice, and the quest for personal redemption against a backdrop of prairie life and societal expectations. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the picturesque setting of Askatoon, where the vibrant and lively character of Kitty Tynan emerges singing joyfully. Kitty, a girl marked by her beauty and aspirations, becomes entwined in Crozier's life—whose past involvement with a wife he has not seen in years looms over him. The early chapters establish a narrative filled with intrigue, as Kitty discovers a letter intended for Crozier’s wife and contemplates the depths of his secrets. The dynamic between characters hints at romance as well as the complexities of their pasts, setting the stage for the intertwining stories of love, loss, and the haunting memories that define their futures.
