| Summary |
"One Woman: Being the Second Part of a Romance of Sussex" by Alfred Ollivant is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book explores the lives and relationships of Ruth Boam and Ernie Caspar, a young couple recently married, as they navigate the challenges of love, family, and societal expectations in Sussex. Central to the story is their joy as newlyweds, contrasted with the complexities of their pasts and the shadowy figures that linger in their lives. The opening of the novel paints a vivid picture of Ruth and Ernie's quiet wedding day and the simple journey they undertake in a carrier's cart. As they settle into their new life together, the narrative introduces key figures like Alf, Ernie's brother, whose lurking presence hints at deeper tensions. The richness of the Sussex setting is highlighted, and the couple’s joy brings a sense of hope to their future. However, underlying currents of past troubles, family dynamics, and social challenges begin to weave into the story, suggesting a blend of romance and personal struggle that will likely unfold as the novel progresses.
