Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Sisters" by Kathleen Thompson Norris is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. It revolves around the lives of the Strickland family, particularly focusing on the youngest daughter, Cherry Strickland, who experiences a pivotal moment in her life as she becomes engaged to Martin Lloyd. The story explores themes of love, family dynamics, and the transition from childhood to adulthood. At the start of the book, Cherry joyfully rushes home after her engagement, filled with a mix of exhilaration and trepidation about her newfound happiness. The narrative introduces her family, including her older sister Alix and cousin Anne, who each have their own perspectives on Cherry's engagement and the implications it holds for their lives. As Cherry basks in the excitement of her engagement, the opening chapters reveal familial interactions, the stark contrast between Cherry's innocent naivety and the caution of her sisters and father, and the burgeoning dynamics with Martin Lloyd. The complexities of relationships and the challenges of growing up begin to unfold, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of love and self-discovery in the unfolding narrative.
