| Summary | "Miles Tremenhere: A Novel. Vol. 1 of 2" by Annette Marie Maillard is a fictional work likely written in the mid-19th century. The story unfolds around the character of Minnie Dalzell, an orphan navigating the complexities of love and familial expectations while moving through a world filled with social class divisions and romantic aspirations. The novel explores themes of love, betrayal, and the search for identity, particularly as they pertain to Minnie and her interactions with various suitors, including the enigmatic Miles Tremenhere. The opening portion introduces Minnie, who reflects on her life in an old house where various relatives aim to guide her toward matrimony. Her internal struggle with her feelings toward potential suitors, especially Marmaduke Burton and Mr. Dalby, highlights her yearning for true love. As she engages in a playful soliloquy about love and longing, the narrative hints at the arrival of her cousin Dora, someone she admires yet fears. The chapter further weaves the backstory of her family and their connections with Miles Tremenhere, hinting at unresolved tensions and a larger narrative concerning love, loss, and societal pressures. Minnie's empathetic visits to Mary Burns underline her kind-hearted nature and set the stage for deeper interactions with Tremenhere, who later emerges as a significant figure linked to themes of loyalty and redemption.
