Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Cabin Fever" by B. M. Bower is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Bud Moore, an ex-cow-puncher who grapples with the mental strains of domestic life, often referred to as "cabin fever," after moving away from the open range to settle down with his wife Marie and their newborn child. The narrative delves into themes of discontentment and the struggles of adapting to a mundane lifestyle. The beginning of the book introduces Bud Moore, who is experiencing a disorienting malaise akin to cabin fever, a term used to describe the psychological strain of isolation and monotony. The opening chapters detail Bud's frustrations with domestic responsibilities, particularly his inability to connect with his wife Marie amid the chaos of raising their infant. Following a heated quarrel, Bud finds himself estranged from Marie and grappling with feelings of resentment and helplessness. The situation escalates as he becomes embroiled in a series of misadventures involving a stolen car and a mysterious journey, setting the stage for a transformative experience away from the confines of his domestic life.
