| Summary | "Courtin' Christina" by J. J. Bell is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Macgregor Robinson, a young painter navigating the complexities of adolescence in Glasgow, as he grapples with love, friendship, and family dynamics. The book delves into his efforts to court a girl named Jessie Mary, showcasing the challenges he faces while balancing his work and developing relationships with family and peers. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to the Robinson family during a somewhat chaotic mealtime as they await the arrival of Macgregor, who is late due to work obligations. We learn about the family's dynamics and the changes that have taken place over the past eight years, particularly highlighting the personalities of Macgregor's siblings and parents. The narrative then shifts focus to Macgregor, emphasizing his growing restlessness and his budding feelings for Jessie Mary, who he only recently began to notice as a potential romantic interest. As he fumbles with personal grooming and interactions with his family, the opening portion skillfully sets the stage for Macgregor's journey into budding adulthood, capturing both the innocence and awkwardness of young love.
