Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Redeemed" by Mrs. George Sheldon Downs is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the tumultuous relationship of Helen and John Hungerford as they navigate the complexities of marriage, infidelity, and personal aspirations. The narrative opens with tension as Helen confronts her husband about his request for a divorce, laying bare the emotional stakes concerning their daughter, Dorothy, and revealing underlying issues of love, betrayal, and societal expectations. At the start of the novel, readers witness a heated conversation between Helen and John, where Helen calmly accepts the impending divorce but firmly insists on retaining custody of their daughter, Dorothy. John's character emerges as self-absorbed and irresponsible, displaying little regard for the implications of his actions on his family. As Dorothy enters, her youthful innocence contrasts sharply with the fraught atmosphere, and it becomes evident that she is caught in the struggle between her parents. The opening chapters establish a foundation of conflict, guilt, and emotional resilience, setting the stage for the characters’ ongoing battle for redemption and personal fulfillment amidst societal judgment.
