"Once to Every Man" by Larry Evans is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Young Denny Bolton, a physically strong yet emotionally burdened young man who feels ignored by the community and lives a solitary life in his dilapidated farmhouse. His life revolves around the distant hope of connection and recognition, particularly as townsfolk prepare for a significant event that he believes will change everything. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Denny's character, which is marked by his wistful gray eyes and a sense of longing for something more in life. As he awaits the arrival of mail from the passing postman, we learn about his struggles and the harsh reality of being overlooked by both the townspeople and fate itself. He reflects on past events, including the legacy of his father, Old Denny, and his growing relationship with Dryad Anderson, a girl from a less fortunate background. The opening chapters establish Denny’s internal conflicts and the weight of expectations that come from living in a small village where he is seen as an outsider, setting the tone for a story rich in themes of love, loss, and the longing for acceptance.
