Held to Answer: A Novel
Produced by Al Haines
"Held to Answer: A Novel" by "Peter Clark MacFarlane" is a fiction work written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around John Hampstead, a big, awkward stenographer who harbors dreams of significance beyond his mundane job. Throughout the story, the contrast between Hampstead's outer demeanor and inner aspirations unfolds, blending elements of hope and personal growth. The opening of the novel introduces us to John Hampstead, who is characterized by his physical awkwardness and an earnest desire for a more meaningful life, despite serving as a stenographer in an office dominated by more conventional business figures. As he navigates the scornful laughter of his colleagues and performs tasks with a sense of spiritual honor, his attention is drawn to opportunities for self-expression and artistry, particularly as he seeks lessons from an actor. The chapter sets the stage for Hampstead's quest for identity and fulfillment, hinting at future adventures in both personal and professional realms, particularly as his aspirations to become an actor begin to take root amidst the challenges of his daily life.
