"Charles Auchester, Volume 1" by Elizabeth Sara Sheppard is a novel likely written in the mid-19th century. The story centers around the life of Charles Auchester, a young protagonist deeply passionate about music, with the narrative revealing his early experiences and aspirations within a musical environment. The book serves as a tribute to the composer Mendelssohn, with the character of Seraphael inspired by him, and delves into themes of artistic passion, personal growth, and the societal influences on the pursuit of art. The opening portion of the novel establishes Charles Auchester's background, emphasizing his family dynamics and early musical inclinations. It introduces his relationships with his mother, siblings, and their domestic life, highlighting the influence of music on his childhood. As Charles navigates his aspirations and experiences, he grapples with feelings of inadequacy while simultaneously yearning for artistic expression. With references to his family's discussion about attending a significant music festival, the beginning sets the stage for Charles's journey into the broader world of music, revealing both the excitement and challenges he will face as he seeks to fulfill his dreams.
