| Summary | "Doctor Cupid: A Novel" by Rhoda Broughton is a work of fiction likely written in the late 19th century. This novel introduces readers to the lives of the Lambton sisters, especially focusing on Peggy and Prue, who navigate their experiences and interactions while living in a small residence in the shadows of a larger estate. The themes of social observation, youthful aspirations, and romantic entanglements appear to be at the forefront of this narrative. At the start of the story, we are immersed in the charming yet complicated world of the two sisters and their reflections on life within the constraints of societal expectations and personal desires. The opening section features their wry assessments of what they owe to the "Big House"—the larger estate nearby—and the culture around them. Through playful dialogue, we see the sisters' personalities come to life, with Peggy displaying a blend of practicality and introspection, while Prue embodies youthful exuberance. This charming glimpse into their lives sets the stage for a narrative filled with humor, growing pains, and the pursuit of love, making it a compelling read for those intrigued by societal norms and the intricacies of relationships in a bygone era.
