"The Gates of Morning" by H. De Vere Stacpoole is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set on the remote islands of Karolin and Palm Tree, following the lives of Dick Lestrange, who is believed to be a divine leader by the islanders, and Katafa, a girl he's deeply in love with. As tensions rise due to the threat of war and the encroachment of outsiders, the novel explores themes of identity, leadership, and the clash between civilization and the primal instincts of humanity. The opening of the novel introduces us to Dick Lestrange as he gazes out over the lagoon of Karolin, feeling the weight of leadership thrust upon him as the sole man among his people, left vulnerable after the devastation of war. He reflects on his past life on Palm Tree, where he was raised, and the violent events that brought him to Karolin alongside Katafa. As rumors of impending conflict loom, Dick understands that the safety of his new home is precarious and that he must rally the tribe to prepare for potential threats, especially since the men from Palm Tree may soon come looking for their lost women. This initial chapter sets the stage for a rich adventure filled with leadership challenges, cultural dynamics, and the complexities of relationships in a tribal society.
