Summary "Aylwin" by Theodore Watts-Dunton is a novel written during the late 19th century that explores themes of love, identity, and the struggle between personal suffering and the beauty of existence. The narrative follows the protagonist, Henry Aylwin, a young boy who faces the challenges of being a cripple.
