Summary "The Forbidden Room; Or, 'Mine Answer was My Deed'" by Phoebe Allen is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in a rural setting centered around Gaybrook Farm, where a group of children, including the timid Gaston Delzant and the lively cousins, come together for a summer visit. Through their adventures and interactions, themes of childhood innocence, friendship, and the quest for acceptance come to the forefront. The opening of the novel introduces the lively preparations at Gaybrook Farm for the arrival of guests, particularly focusing on the excitement and nerves of the children, especially Gaston, who fears being teased. As the guests arrive, a diverse cast of characters is established, each with their distinctive personalities and quirks. The children's initial interactions set the stage for playful dynamics and conflicts, particularly highlighting Andrew's bravado and the gentle, more timid nature of Gaston. This portion of the book effectively sets the tone for a light-hearted yet poignant exploration of childhood experiences in a close-knit farm community. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
