Tim Lindell and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net "The Triumph over Midian" by A. L. O. E. is a historical fiction written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around biblical themes, specifically focusing on the character Gideon and his triumph over the Midianites. The story intertwines biblical history with the lives of two cousins, Edith Lestrange and Isa Gritton, as they navigate their personal trials and the spiritual lessons derived from Gideon's experiences. At the start of the narrative, we meet Edith, who joyfully returns to her ancestral home, Castle Lestrange, after five years. Her excitement is tempered by the contrasting experiences of her cousin Isa, who is living with a somewhat negative and avaricious brother, Gaspar. As they reminisce and plan their lives ahead, themes of friendship, longing for home, and the burden of familial responsibilities emerge. The chapter establishes a backdrop of Christian faith, drawn from the biblical account of Gideon, which will serve to inform and guide the characters and their struggles throughout the story. The allegorical references to Gideon and the Midianites hint at personal and spiritual battles that reflect the trials faced by the protagonists in their everyday lives.
