About this eBook

Author Glasgow, Ellen Anderson Gholson, 1873-1945
Title The Miller Of Old Church
Credits Produced by Doug Levy
Summary "The Miller Of Old Church" by Ellen Anderson Gholson Glasgow is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in a small Virginian community, exploring themes of love, relationships, and social class dynamics through the lives of its characters. Central to the narrative is Jonathan Gay, who returns to his uncle’s estate, Jordan's Journey, and encounters the complexities of rural life and budding romances influenced by social perceptions and personal histories. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to a range of characters and settings, beginning with a newcomer, young Mr. Jonathan Gay, who arrives at Bottom's Ordinary amidst discussions of local gossip. Through dialogue among townsfolk, we learn about the contrasting lives of the various characters, including Jonathan’s complex family background and the gossip surrounding his late uncle. As he interacts with local residents—including the charming yet capricious Molly Merryweather and the ambitious miller Abel Revercomb—themes of desire and societal judgment begin to emerge, hinting at conflicts that will develop as the story progresses. The opening sets a tone of both whimsical humor and underlying tension, beckoning readers into the world of Old Church and its intrigues. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
