Summary "Plowing On Sunday" by Sterling North is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set in southern Wisconsin and revolves around the Brailsford family, particularly focusing on the lives of Stud Brailsford, his wife Sarah, and their son Peter, against the backdrop of rural farming life in the spring of 1913. The book delves into themes of family dynamics, love, and the challenges of agriculture, while also weaving in the intriguing arrival of a young girl named Early Ann Sherman. At the start of the narrative, the reader meets Sarah Brailsford as she searches for her husband during a storm. The scene captures her growing concern until she discovers Stud returning home with Early Ann, a young woman who has come to stay with them. The first chapter unfolds with pastoral descriptions that set the tone of life on the Brailsford farm, interlaced with hints of tension and curiosity regarding Early Ann’s presence and backstory. Sarah's kindness towards Early Ann contrasts with the whispers of suspicion from the townsfolk, hinting at future conflicts within the family dynamic. The opening establishes a rich landscape and complex character interactions that invite readers to explore the relationships and challenges that lie ahead for the Brailsfords.
