| Summary | "Mrs. Severn: A Novel, Vol. 1 (of 3)" by Mary Elizabeth Carter is a fictional novel penned in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Mr. Severn and his complicated relationship with his future wife, Clothilde, as well as the effects of her prior life on their impending marriage. Themes of love, responsibility, and the social expectations surrounding marriage emerge prominently through the characters' interactions and their introspections. The opening of the novel introduces Mr. Severn, who is on his way to marry Clothilde Hugo, reflecting on the burdens his age and social status impart on their relationship. As he makes his way through the scenic Jersey landscape, he encounters his friend Ambrose Piton, who expresses concerns over Severn's choice in marrying a younger woman. The narrative also hints at Clothilde's unresolved ties to another man, further complicating her feelings as the story unfolds. The scene is set with rich descriptions of the surroundings and insights into the characters' thoughts, creating a backdrop filled with emotional tension as the characters navigate their desires and societal roles.
