Summary | "Innocent: A Tale of Modern Life" by Mrs. Oliphant is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the Eastwood family, particularly the life of Mrs. Eastwood, a widow, and her four children, who navigate personal and familial challenges in their comfortable home. The narrative begins with an inviting description of The Elms, the family's old house in London, hinting at themes of innocence, social dynamics, and the complexities of family relationships. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the Eastwood family and their tranquil home life, characterized by a sense of comfort and regularity. Mrs. Eastwood is portrayed as a loving mother, managing her children and their occasional troubles, particularly focusing on her eldest son, Frederick, who has recently faced personal challenges. The chapter sets up a looming event that will disrupt their calm existence: the arrival of an orphaned cousin from Italy named Innocent. This introduction not only signals a turning point in the family's dynamics but also evokes curiosity about the effects Innocent will have on the Eastwoods, particularly in terms of social interactions, relationships, and personal growth.
