"Mattie:—A Stray (Vol 3 of 3)" by F. W. Robinson is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The book follows the life of Mattie, a young woman who finds herself caring for Sidney Hinchford, a blind man grappling with personal loss and despair. The story intricately explores themes of duty, love, and the complexities of relationships as Mattie strives to bring light back into Sidney's life while navigating her own feelings and promises made to his deceased father. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the emotional struggles faced by Sidney following the death of his father. He is depicted as a man who, despite his previous successes and ambitions, is now trapped in darkness and self-pity due to his blindness. Mattie, empathetic and determined, is committed to caring for him while she grapples with her own feelings of loyalty and love. As the narrative unfolds, we see Mattie resolving to help Sidney regain hope and purpose, despite the challenges posed by her father’s conflicting priorities and societal judgments. The beginning sets a poignant tone, suggesting a journey of self-discovery and the forging of new connections amid adversity. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
