De Vere Stacpoole is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set against the picturesque backdrop of the Irish coast, focusing on the intricate lives of the characters associated with Drumgool House, particularly Miss Effie French, an invalid girl, and Moriarty, her quirky caretaker. The narrative revolves around themes of companionship, the beauty of nature, and the complexities of human relationships in a rural setting. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the great old house of Drumgool and its surroundings, where the sounds and sights of the Atlantic Ocean play a vital role. As we meet Miss Effie French, who is of frail health and uses a bath-chair, we see her interactions with Moriarty, who displays a mix of affection and authority towards her. The opening chapters set the stage for the arrival of a governess, Miss Grimshaw, and highlight the household dynamics, Mr. French's financial troubles related to horse racing, and the everyday beauty and challenges of life in this remote Irish setting. The stage is beautifully set for the unfolding of personal and financial dramas intertwined with the characters’ lives as the story progresses. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
