Summary: "Linda Condon" by Joseph Hergesheimer is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a young girl named Linda Condon, who is portrayed as having a serious and introspective nature, contrasting with the more flamboyant personality of her mother, Mrs. Condon. The narrative provides a glimpse into their lives, focused on their interactions in a lavish hotel setting, where appearances and social dynamics play a significant role. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Linda, a child with striking blue eyes and a grave demeanor, and her vivacious mother, who is consumed by social appearances. As Linda navigates the bustling atmosphere of the Boscombe hotel, she assists her mother in various social endeavors, showcasing her sense of responsibility that belies her young age. The opening chapters depict a tension between Linda's internal reflections and her mother's carefree attitude towards relationships and social engagements. The contrasting traits of mother and daughter serve as a foundation for what appears to be an exploration of identity and societal expectations, as Linda grapples with the complexities of her environment and her deep admiration for her mother, despite the latter's frequent indulgences and superficialities.
