Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"To-morrow and to-morrow" by Stephen McKenna is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story begins during the tense moments surrounding the armistice of World War I, focusing on characters navigating the uncertain transition from war to peace. Central to the narrative is George, who, alongside others, grapples with the ramifications of a newfound peace and contemplates the future implications of their experiences during the war. The opening portion sets the stage just before the armistice is signed, and we see George's internal struggle with the reality of peace settling in after years of conflict. Conversations between him and Captain Hornbeck reveal a mixture of hope and trepidation regarding the future. As George heads home to share the news of peace with his wife, Barbara, we glimpse her frail state, emphasizing the toll the war has taken on individuals. The rich tapestry of characters and their emotional turmoil promises a deep exploration of personal and societal change amidst the backdrop of historical events, engaging readers with themes of loss, adjustment, and the search for meaning in the aftermath of chaos.
