Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Rest Harrow: A Comedy of Resolution" by Maurice Hewlett is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around complex interpersonal relationships, particularly focusing on characters such as Jack Senhouse, a reclusive philosopher, and Sanchia Percival, who have intricate pasts that influence their current lives. The narrative delves into themes of love, regret, and the struggles of self-identity while navigating societal expectations. At the start of the book, the tale begins on a steamer where the observant traveler, Mr. William Chevenix, observes Jack Senhouse and Mrs. Germain, stirring curiosity about their history. Through dialogue between Chevenix and Senhouse, it is revealed that Senhouse has feelings for Sanchia Percival, who is currently at Wanless Hall, adding layers of tension as unresolved feelings resurface. The opening sets the stage for the exploration of these characters’ pasts, the complications of their relationships, and the looming questions about love and duty that will likely unfold throughout the narrative.
