Title: An interrupted night
Original Publication: United States: J. B. Lippincott Company, 1929.
Summary: "An Interrupted Night" by Isabella M. Alden, known as Pansy, is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. The book revolves around the experiences of Mary Dunlap, a writer of great character and wisdom, as she encounters a young couple, the Kellers, during a fateful train journey. The narrative delves into the themes of love, deception, and maternal protection as Mary observes the tumultuous relationship between the young bride, Daisy, and her husband, Rufus, who is revealed to be less than honorable. At the start of the story, the train carrying the characters limps along, causing delays that foreshadow the chaotic events to come. Mary Dunlap, while busy with her own endeavors, becomes embroiled in the tense dynamics between the Kellers, who are evidently facing personal struggles. The scene shifts from lighthearted observation to one filled with drama and concern as Mary's protective instincts kick in upon witnessing the young bride's distress. With her heart turned towards the girl, Mary resolves to intervene in what seems like a dire situation, setting the stage for a poignant exploration of truths and moral dilemmas.
