"The Flying Girl" by Edith Van Dyne is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Orissa Kane, a determined young woman whose brother, Stephen, is aspiring to be an aviator. The narrative explores themes of ambition, family bonds, and the challenges faced by those pursuing their dreams in the evolving field of aviation. At the start of the story, we are introduced to Orissa Kane, who works diligently as a secretary while caring for her blind mother and supporting her brother's aspirations to build a successful aircraft. Their family has faced hardships since their father's death, and Stephen is determined to create a revolutionary airship, which sparks both hope and anxiety in Orissa as they journey through the practicalities and uncertainties of their ambitions. As the plot unfolds, it hints at complicated relationships and external challenges that could impact their goals, especially with characters like Mr. Burthon, a businessman with questionable morals, and Mr. Cumberford, who unexpectedly offers assistance.
