Summary "The History of Sir Richard Calmady: A Romance" by Lucas Malet is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story is set against the backdrop of a family lineage and revolves around the experiences of Sir Richard Calmady, exploring themes of love, social relations, and the legacies of family history." "The opening of the story introduces the setting of Brockhurst, a grand estate built by Denzil Calmady, and highlights the beauty of the landscape and the weight of familial legacy. The narrative hints at a family curse affecting the male descendants of Denzil Calmady, suggesting an ominous future for Sir Richard. In a close-up view, we meet Richard and Katherine Calmady amidst a post-wedding celebration, where Katherine reflects on her new life and the urgency of motherhood, setting the stage for deeper exploration of love and destiny intertwined with the family's troubled past."
