"My Little Sister" by Elizabeth Robins is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative revolves around the complex relationship between two sisters, particularly highlighting the dynamic between the older sister, who appears to be protective and observant, and her younger sister Bettina, who is depicted as charming and ethereal. The story begins with reflections on their childhood, set in an idyllic but somewhat isolated landscape, suggesting themes of innocence, familial bonds, and the looming specter of adulthood. At the start of the novel, the older sister introduces Bettina as a radiant presence in their lives, capturing the affection of everyone around them. The opening scenes reveal their playful interactions and the warmth of family life, alongside an undercurrent of protective instincts from the older sister. This protective nature hints at deeper issues as it becomes apparent that their mother harbors anxieties and views the outside world with suspicion. The girls' early memories are filled with moments of wonder and joy, but also foreboding as their lives are increasingly touched by the complexities of their mother’s fears and societal expectations.
