| Summary | "The Pagan's Progress" by Gouverneur Morris is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book appears to explore themes of humanity's primal instincts and evolution, set against a backdrop that emphasizes the stark realities of survival and the complexities of human relationships. The narrative centers around the characters One Eye, a father struggling with the decisions regarding his daughter Maku, and No Man, an unusual member of the tribe who does not conform to the traditional roles expected of him. At the start of this work, the reader is introduced to One Eye, who sits pensively at the mouth of his cave, contemplating his daughter's future amidst competing suitors. His reflections lead to a comic yet poignant negotiation between the tribal men vying for Maku's hand—highlighting their raw instincts and desires. This depiction swiftly transitions into a more serious tone when No Man, an outcast preoccupied with his art of etching, enters the scene, prompting a series of confrontations and dramatic events. The opening sets the stage for explorations of power dynamics, societal expectations, and the personal ambitions of these early human characters as they navigate their world.
