Summary: " Mistress Anne" by Temple Bailey is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Anne Warfield, a schoolteacher who yearns for a more vibrant life, and her interactions with the residents and visitors at Peter Bower's lodge, particularly focusing on her feelings of loneliness and desire for connection. As she navigates her teaching responsibilities and her growing awareness of those around her, the novel explores themes of aspiration, social class, and the search for personal fulfillment. At the start of the story, readers are introduced to Anne on a cold day as she reflects on her life after the holiday season. Caught between the jovial company of the "Old Gentlemen" who frequent the lodge and her own youthful longing for romantic adventure, Anne grapples with her place in the world. She adopts a lonely drake named Diogenes and finds solace in nurturing him, showcasing her compassionate nature. The appearance of Richard Brooks and the vibrant party guests after the arrival of a train hints at new social dynamics that will come to play, setting the stage for potential romantic interests and the value of companionship that Anne deeply craves. As she interacts with young Peggy and contemplates her connections, both human and animal, the foundation for her emotional journey unfolds. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
