Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Captain Lucy in the Home Sector" by Aline Havard is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Lucy Gordon, a young nurse's aide, as she navigates the complexities of post-war life in Germany after the armistice. With the backdrop of a war-ravaged Europe, Lucy experiences the lingering struggles of peace and the emotional weight of separation from loved ones, particularly her brother Bob, who remains in a dangerous position overseas. At the start of the novel, we see Lucy grappling with her feelings about the war's aftermath. Despite the armistice, she finds herself stationed in Coblenz with the American Army of Occupation, facing homesickness and a longing for her family. As she connects with friends and fellow soldiers, including Larry Eaton, she resolves to contribute positively through her work at a nearby convalescent hospital. The opening portion sets the scene for her interactions with various characters, explores her memories of friendship, and hints at her future encounters with both new and familiar faces, including a surprising meeting with Captain de la Tour, a shadow from her past.
