Summary: "When I Was Your Age" by Laura E. Richards is a nostalgic memoir written in the late 19th century. The work offers a vivid recollection of childhood experiences, exploring family life and the whimsical adventures of childhood, centered around the lives of the author's siblings and herself. The narrative highlights the bonds between the five siblings—Julia Romana, Florence, Harry, Laura, and Maud—and evokes the innocence and imagination of youth against the backdrop of their unique upbringing. The opening portion of the memoir introduces the reader to the five siblings, detailing their distinct personalities and interactions. Julia, the eldest, is portrayed as sensitive and dreamlike, a natural storyteller, while Florence, or Flossy, is vibrant and imaginative, bringing life to dances and fanciful tales. The author, Laura, shares poignant childhood memories, including playful activities like storytelling and create games, all grounded in a loving family setting. As they navigate their time together, their father’s influence as a figure of guidance and his thoughts on education seep into their experiences, foreshadowing the significant role of family and memory throughout the memoir.
