Summary: "An Isle in the Water" by Katharine Tynan is a novel written in the late 19th century. The book explores themes of love, loss, and rivalry, set against the backdrop of a coastal Irish community. The initial chapter introduces a complex relationship dynamic involving a widower, his new wife, and the lingering memory of his deceased first wife, Alison, who still casts a shadow over their lives. The opening of the novel focuses on the struggle of the new wife, who has worked hard to erase memories of Alison from her husband's mind and their home. Despite her efforts, the loyal dog of Alison remains a reminder of her legacy, resisting the second wife's attempts to claim the household as entirely her own. As the atmosphere tense with supernatural elements and local lore, the dynamics within the family begin to shift, hinting at unresolved emotions and the boundaries between life and death.
