"Natalie Page" by Katharine Haviland-Taylor is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Natalie Page, a spirited and tomboyish sixteen-year-old girl, as she navigates the complexities of life after moving from her small hometown to live with her relatives in New York City. The narrative explores themes of family, identity, and the struggle between personal desires and societal expectations, particularly for young women during that time. The opening of the story introduces Natalie in a reflective mood as she recalls poignant moments from her childhood, particularly surrounding the loss of her mother. As she transfers to her uncle Frank Randolph's home, it is clear she possesses a free-spirited nature that leads her into trouble, such as when she decides to bicycle down courthouse steps. As the first chapter unfolds, we find her wrestling with impending changes and the pressure of conformity symbolized by her family's expectations for her future. Natalie's internal conflict is compounded by her aunt’s intentions to polish her rough edges and prepare her for a more refined life, setting the stage for the adventures and challenges she will face in her new urban environment.
