| Summary | "Five Thousand Pounds" by Agnes Giberne is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around a family living in a quaint cottage, primarily viewed through the eyes of a young girl named Phœbe. The narrative explores themes of wealth, morality, and familial relationships as the family grapples with a sudden inheritance of five thousand pounds, which brings about significant changes and challenges. At the start of the book, we are introduced to Phœbe's idyllic childhood in a cottage where her father, Miles, her attentive grandmother, and her somewhat careless mother live together. As they enjoy their simple life, they are suddenly thrust into excitement and turmoil when they learn that Miles has received an inheritance from a deceased relative, Andrew Morison. The initial joy of this newfound fortune quickly spirals into conflict, with family members torn between aspirations for a better life and the moral implications of wealth. As the story unfolds, tensions rise over how to manage their good fortune, revealing deeper issues within the family dynamic. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
