Summary | "Years of Plenty" by Ivor John Carnegie Brown is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Martin Leigh, a young boy navigating his new life as a boarder at a public school, experiencing the complexities and challenges of adolescence in a formal educational environment. The plot primarily centers around Martin's struggles to fit in, the social dynamics at school, and the various trials he faces alongside his peers. The opening of the novel introduces Martin on his first day at Elfrey School, where he feels overwhelmed by the numerous rules and customs he must learn. As he reflects on his experiences and interactions with other boys, he becomes acutely aware of his social standing and the expectations placed upon him. Overwhelmed by fear of embarrassment and longing for acceptance, he worries about trivial details, such as his attire and place within the group. Through Martin's perspective, readers glimpse the awkward yet formative moments of youth as he navigates friendships, schoolwork, and the challenges of growing up in a rigid school system.
