Summary "To Let" by B. M. Croker is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a young woman named Susan Shandon, who moves to India to live with her brother and his family. Set against the backdrop of British colonial life, the narrative explores themes of domesticity, family dynamics, and the challenges of adapting to a new environment. The opening of "To Let" introduces Susan as she arrives in Lucknow with excitement and anticipation for her new life. She is welcomed by her energetic sister-in-law, Aggie, and describes the vivid life of an Anglo-Indian family, including their struggles with the oppressive heat of summer. As the season progresses, Susan highlights the family's attempts to make it through the unbearable weather, revealing both comedic and tense moments. The prospect of renting a new place in the hills adds a layer of urgency to their situation, setting the stage for future developments in the story. With a mix of humor and introspection, the beginning establishes the tone for the unfolding adventures and challenges that await Susan and her family. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
