Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Oswald Langdon" by Carson Jay Lee is a novel written during the late 19th century. The story appears to involve intricate themes of romance, intrigue, and suspense, revolving around the main character, Oswald Langdon, as well as his interactions with various other characters, including Esther Randolph and Alice Webster. The early chapters suggest a developing narrative that weaves together elements of personal ambition, emotional conflict, and perhaps an element of crime or danger. The opening of the book sets the stage with a sense of unease, as Oswald encounters a terrifying news headline about a murder, which seems to linger over his thoughts. He experiences a series of unfortunate events, including a mishap while riding, leading to his arm and shin injuries. Following this, he meets Sir Donald Randolph, who shows kindness by taking Oswald to his home, Northfield. Oswald’s feelings for Esther begin to develop, but the arrival of Alice Webster creates tension. As the story unfolds, hints of deeper conflicts emerge, especially with Alice's and Oswald's complicated dynamics and the shadow of danger posed by Paul Lanier, suggesting that darker themes and potential tragedies loom ahead.
