Janet's boys $aLondon :$bSociety for Promoting Christian Knowledge, $c1896. "Janet's Boys" by Annette Lyster is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the Rayburn family, particularly focusing on Fred Rayburn, his mother Janet, and his stepmother Mrs. Rayburn, against the backdrop of family dynamics, hardships, and societal influences. Central to the narrative is the struggling relationship stemming from Fred's father’s misfortune and the affect it has on the family's well-being. At the start of the narrative, we see Mr. Rayburn expressing his longing for a mistress to restore comfort to their household after the death of his first wife. The ensuing conversation reveals the challenges faced by Fred as he navigates life with a distant father and a stepmother who is not as nurturing as he would like. After a series of events including his father's death and the family's subsequent struggles, the tone shifts to reveal Janet's growing responsibilities and her move to ensure her children’s future amid the unfolding turmoil surrounding her husband. The opening sets the stage for a deeper exploration of faith, morality, and resilience as Janet’s journey progresses.
