| Summary |
"Treve" by Albert Payson Terhune is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a young collie named Treve, who, despite the harsh treatment he receives from his owner, displays extraordinary courage and loyalty. As he faces various challenges, including a tumultuous journey and the kindness of a compassionate stranger, the narrative explores themes of friendship, resilience, and the bond between humans and dogs. The opening of "Treve" introduces us to a train journey across a desolate landscape, where the protagonist, Fraser Colt, displays a callous interest in a collie pup he owns, viewing the animal solely as a means to generate profit at an upcoming dog show. After a series of unfortunate events on the train, the puppy is brutally thrown off by Colt and is then saved by Lionel Arthur Montagu Brean, a fugitive and former surgeon, who names him Treve. The two quickly form a bond, setting the stage for Treve’s heroic journey and the adventures that await him as he navigates life with the kind-hearted Brean and an ultimately merciless world.
