| Summary | "Lady Athlyne" by Bram Stoker is a novel written in the late 19th century. This story revolves around Joy Ogilvie, a spirited young woman, and her father, Colonel Ogilvie, as they navigate their way through a tumultuous journey both physically, aboard the "Cryptic," and emotionally as they discuss themes of honor, romance, and societal expectations. The narrative begins against a backdrop of harsh winter weather, juxtaposing the characters' hope for a brighter future against the challenges of their present circumstances. The opening of "Lady Athlyne" introduces readers to a grim winter landscape as the ship "Cryptic" embarks from New York Harbor, filled with passengers eager to escape the blizzard-stricken city. We meet Colonel Ogilvie and his daughter Joy, who bring a lively dynamic to the otherwise isolated and frigid atmosphere. Their playful banter serves to highlight the themes of family loyalty and societal constraints regarding women in travel. Joy especially stands out as a character full of vitality, challenging her father's more traditional views while maintaining a deep respect for him. As the voyage progresses, the emergence of various relationships and a mysterious nobleman, Lord Athlyne, begins to weave through the conversations, setting the stage for potential romance and adventure as the story unfolds.
