"The Travelling Thirds" by Gertrude Franklin Horn Atherton is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around the Moulton family, particularly their California cousin, Catalina, who brings a refreshing and unconventional spirit to the rigid dynamics of her Eastern relatives. The story unfolds as the family plans to travel to Spain, highlighting the contrasts in character, social expectations, and the desire for adventure. The opening of the novel introduces Catalina amid a group of her relatives as they discuss traveling third class to Spain, an idea that stirs discontent among her more conservative companions. Catalina's independent and determined attitude becomes evident as she firmly states her intentions to explore Spain, showcasing her desire for freedom in the face of her family's conformist views. The dynamic between her and the Moultons, especially her cousin Lydia's admiration for her audacity, sets the stage for a journey filled with cultural clashes and personal revelations. As the group sets off, tensions rise alongside the excitement of travel, illustrating the different values and personalities they embody. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
