| Summary | "A Change of Air" by Anthony Hope is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story introduces Dale Bannister, a wild young poet who scandalizes the small town of Market Denborough by moving into a lavish country house. The narrative explores themes of society, class distinctions, and the juxtaposition of urban and rural life as Dale navigates his new surroundings alongside his friends, including Arthur Angell and Philip Hume. The opening of the novel presents Dale in conversation with his friends as he prepares to leave London for Market Denborough. The characters express a mix of excitement and concern about the changes ahead, with Dale determined to embrace country life while remaining true to his artistic roots. We see glimpses of his motivations for the move, such as his desire to help a friend, Nellie, who needs rest. The interactions between the friends reveal their contrasting perspectives on status and success, setting the tone for the unfolding social dynamics in Denborough as new acquaintances and tensions arise with the local populace.
