Summary: "The Fog" by William Dudley Pelley is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story appears to center around the experiences of young boys, particularly focusing on their adventures and interactions in a rural setting, highlighting themes of friendship, innocence, and the societal pressures of growing up. The narrative introduces the main character, a boy who begins a new school year and meets another boy named Nathan Forge, setting the stage for their relationship and the challenges they face as they navigate their childhood experiences. The opening of "The Fog" presents a vivid portrayal of childhood in a small Vermont school yard as the young protagonist reflects on his awkwardness and bravado. He engages in banter with Nathan, a new boy distinguished by his plethora of freckles, and this light-hearted interaction reveals their budding friendship amidst the backdrop of their families' circumstances. The narrative unfolds through their dialogue, playful jabs, and the playful comparisons they draw from their family backgrounds, which hint at deeper themes of familial relationships and social status. This opening establishes not only the childhood innocence of the characters but also foreshadows the complexities they will encounter as they grow. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
