Summary "The Suspicions of Ermengarde" by Maxwell Gray is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Ermengarde Allonby, a woman grappling with the complications of her marriage to Arthur, who exhibits a rather indifferent attitude toward her concerns and feelings, particularly regarding household expenditures and her social aspirations. Through her eyes, readers witness not just the nuances of her domestic struggles but also the broader themes of love, neglect, and the quest for identity. At the start of the novel, the atmosphere is set with a gloomy fog enveloping Kensington Gardens, reflecting Ermengarde's own feelings of despondency. She reflects on her husband Arthur's dismissive demeanor regarding their financial difficulties, particularly concerning the expensive hats she has purchased. Following a series of introspective thoughts about her doomed marriage and the unfulfilled dreams that plague her, Ermengarde decides to travel to the Riviera to seek solace and possibly a fresh start. As she embarks on this journey, the narrative introduces various characters she encounters, and hints at deeper conflicts, including suspicions about her husband, leading readers to ponder how her travels will impact her understanding of love and self-worth.
