Summary | "Good Luck" by L. T. Meade is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around Mrs. Patience Reed, a kind-hearted elderly woman who, while dealing with an injury that threatens her sewing career, finds herself burdened by the responsibility of caring for her six orphaned grandchildren. As the narrative unfolds, themes of personal strength, familial bonds, and the struggle against hardship become prominent. At the start of the book, we meet Mrs. Reed as she visits the London Hospital's Out-Patients' Department, where she learns that her right hand may become useless due to a condition related to her needlework. Despite this troubling news, she remains resilient and determined not to burden her family with her worries. Once home, it is clear that the Reed household is filled with warmth and love, as Mrs. Reed interacts with her grandchildren, who depend on her to keep the family together. Meanwhile, Alison, her eldest grandchild, grapples with an accusation of theft at her workplace that casts a shadow over the family's fortune. The opening chapters highlight the harsh realities they face while showcasing the strength and dignity of Mrs. Reed in the face of adversity. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
