"The Way Out" by Emerson Hough is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story seems to revolve around David Joslin, who struggles against the confines of his family legacy, particularly his father, a preacher with rigid beliefs. He confronts the clash between cultural expectations and personal aspirations in the rugged terrain of the Cumberlands, as he seeks his own path and meaning in life. The opening of the book introduces us to David Joslin’s challenging family dynamics. David is caught between his passion for music, represented by his beloved violin, and his father's austere religious beliefs that condemn such expressions as sinful. After a heated confrontation, David is banished from his father's house, leading him to reflect deeply about his identity and purpose. As he leaves, the oppressive weight of familial expectations looms large, setting the stage for his journey toward self-discovery and the choices he must make in the unforgiving landscape of both the mountains and his own past.
