| Summary | "The Green Satin Gown" by Laura Elizabeth Howe Richards is a novel written during the early 20th century. The narrative revolves around a young girl, her experiences, and her encounters with influential figures in her life, particularly a grand lady named Madam Le Baron. The story unfolds in a quaint setting, combining elements of personal growth, societal expectations, and the gentle nature of friendships. At the start of the novel, the narrator recalls a significant moment from her past when she was invited to visit Madam Le Baron, an esteemed lady living alone in a large mansion. The excitement of being in the presence of such a notable figure leads to unforeseen challenges, particularly surrounding a green satin gown that becomes symbolic of expectation and self-image. As the narrator grapples with self-doubt and the pressures of social appearances, she prepares for an upcoming gathering, navigating the complexities of youth and the desire for acceptance while reflecting on the kindness and wisdom imparted by those around her.
