About this eBook

Author Warner, Charles Dudley, 1829-1900
Title A Little Journey in the World
Credits Produced by David Widger
Summary "A Little Journey in the World" by Charles Dudley Warner is a novel written during the late 19th century. The opening chapters introduce Margaret Debree, a young woman whose character reflects the demoralization of certain influential elements in society. Through her interactions and the surrounding discourse, the narrative explores themes of ambition, social expectations, and the complexities of gender dynamics, particularly in how they relate to identity, purpose, and love. The opening of the book sets the stage for a rich exploration of social commentary, initiating with a dialogue among friends reflecting on the lack of diversity in American life. As their conversation unfolds, we meet Margaret, who embodies both the ideals and struggles of early feminist consciousness. She is portrayed as a nuanced character caught between her ideals and societal conventions, illustrating the challenges women face in defining their identity amidst the pressures of conformity and ambition. Her chance meeting with Mr. Lyon hints at possible romantic developments, yet paves the way for deeper reflections on personal agency and societal roles, setting the tone for an intricate narrative that delves into the intersection of personal aspiration and social expectation.
