Summary: "Michael's Crag" by Grant Allen is a novel written in the late 19th century, which explores themes of duty, remorse, and the emotional turmoil associated with personal loss. The story centers around Walter Tyrrel, the conflicted landlord of Penmorgan, who harbors an intense dislike for his ancestral home. As the narrative unfolds, it reveals the intricacies of Tyrrel's complex relationship with the picturesque yet haunting Cornish landscape, alongside the looming presence of Michael Trevennack—whose tragic past continues to cast a shadow over Tyrrel’s conscience.
