| Summary |
"Manners: A Novel, Vol. 3" by Madame Panache is a historical novel written in the early 19th century. The narrative unfolds through various characters connected with a household in Ballinamoyle, weaving themes of pride, social status, and personal struggles within the interactions of the O'Sullivan family and their guests, primarily focused on Miss Fitzcarril and the newly arrived Adelaide Wildenheim. The opening portion introduces Miss Fitzcarril, a proud yet frugal woman, who oversees Mr. O'Sullivan's household amidst the backdrop of a recently arrived contingent of English travelers. We learn about Mr. O'Sullivan's grief over the loss of his daughter and how Miss Fitzcarril is determined to manage the estate in a manner that reflects her lofty lineage. As the company gathers for the first time at Ballinamoyle, the contrasting dispositions of the characters, particularly Adelaide's tender nature and Miss Fitzcarril's rigid propriety, set the stage for ensuing dramatic interactions. Adelaide grapples with her own feelings of loss and connection as she navigates her new surroundings, while the various household dynamics hint at deeper tensions and relationships that will unfold as the story progresses.
