| Summary | "Five Years of Youth; or, Sense and Sentiment" by Harriet Martineau is a novel written in the early 19th century. The book centers on the lives of two young sisters, Mary and Anna Byerley, who navigate their upbringing without a mother, relying on their father and a nurturing community around them. The narrative explores themes of familial love, personal growth, and the impacts of societal expectations on women's lives. The opening of the novel introduces the sisters living in a farmhouse near a small town, detailing their playful interactions and memories of their deceased mother. Through vivid descriptions of their surroundings and relationships, Martineau sets the stage for the exploration of the girls' characters and the development of their virtues influenced by everyday circumstances. As they visit with nearby children and interact with their father, the foundation of their upbringing amidst emotional challenges and joys begins to unfold, establishing the emotional depth and societal context in which their story takes place.
