| Summary | "Ester Ried Yet Speaking" by Pansy is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. The narrative unfolds primarily through the lens of Alfred Ried, a young man grappling with the legacy of his deceased sister, Ester, whose passion for social work and helping others profoundly impacts him. Throughout the initial chapters, we see themes of familial duty, social responsibility, and the struggles of the marginalized youth in society reflected in their interactions. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Alfred Ried, who is reminiscing about his sister Ester while working in a dry-goods store. The rainy weather sets a dreary tone as he observes people passing by, reflecting on the importance of Ester's work and his perceived inability to continue it. This contemplation sparks a conversation with Mrs. Roberts, a well-dressed woman who expresses her admiration for Ester and her desire to help the troubled youths Alfred is concerned about. Through their dialogue, we learn about a class of boys in need of guidance, highlighting societal neglect and the stark differences between wealth and poverty. The complexities of Alfred's feelings towards the boys, along with Mrs. Roberts' determination to engage with them, foreshadow the challenges and developments that lay ahead in their charitable efforts.
