Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Fatal Glove" by Clara Augusta is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story appears to revolve around the life of Archer Trevlyn, a young boy facing hardships in a tough urban environment, as he grapples with loss, familial secrets, and the desire for vengeance against his grandfather. The opening chapters introduce themes of kindness amid adversity, love pasted with grief, and the stark realities of social class struggles. The beginning of the narrative depicts Archer as a street-sweeper who, after a good day's work, intends to bring home flowers to his ailing mother. Upon returning, he tragically discovers she has passed away. The trauma of her death sets the tone for his journey, which is laden with sorrow and anger towards the man he learns is responsible for his family's misfortunes. Throughout these early chapters, we witness his interactions with other street children, hinting at a life filled with camaraderie against the backdrop of poverty. As Archer grows older, the book hints at his transition into a life marked by a potential thirst for revenge against the patriarch of his family, increasing the stakes of his emotional turmoil.
