| Summary | "David Ives: A Story of St. Timothy's" by Arthur Stanwood Pier is a coming-of-age novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around David Ives, a young boy about to embark on a transformative journey as he is sent to the prestigious St. Timothy's boarding school. This marks the beginning of his deeper involvement in education, athletics, and the challenges of adolescence away from home. The opening of the story sets the stage for David's life in a modest suburb, highlighting his relationships with his family, particularly with his caring yet anxious mother and his ambitious father, who hopes for his son's bright future as a surgeon. As the family prepares for his departure to St. Timothy's, emotions run high, blending excitement with sorrow. David grapples with the tension of leaving home and the expectations placed upon him, revealing themes of growth, responsibility, and the bittersweet nature of new beginnings. The reader witnesses the depth of family ties and David's initial impressions and hopes for his new life, emphasizing the formative experiences that will shape his character as he navigates the complexities of adolescence.
