"The Love Story of Abner Stone" by Edwin Carlile Litsey is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the protagonist, Abner Stone, who reflects upon his life and the love story that has defined his existence, sharing his experiences and introspections as he navigates aging, memory, and the beauty of nature. At the start of the novel, Abner, who is nearing seventy, decides to recount his love story after years of keeping it locked away in his heart. He vividly depicts his surroundings in Kentucky, where he reflects on a past filled with cherished memories, including his solitary life in a boarding house in Louisville. The opening portion introduces his tender nature as he rescues and cares for an injured dog, Fido.
