Summary "The Lonely Plough" by Constance Holme is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Lancelot Lancaster, a land agent tasked with managing the family's estate, as he navigates the complexities of rural life, personal relationships, and the impending upheaval faced by his tenants, particularly the Whinnerah family. The narrative introduces themes of duty, change, and the poignant struggles of love and longing against the backdrop of the English countryside. At the start of the novel, we meet Lancelot Lancaster, who feels an inexplicable weariness despite his relative youth. His daily life is disrupted by the pressures of managing relationships with his tenants, particularly Wolf Whinnerah, whose son Lup is set to leave for Canada, prompting discussions about the future of the family farm. Tensions arise from the unfulfilled romantic interests between Lup and Francey Dockeray, the daughter of a neighboring farmer, hinting at deeper themes of love and domestic struggles. The opening establishes the characters' dynamics and the social pressures that shape their lives, setting the stage for the unfolding drama within the serene yet tumultuous rural setting.
