Summary "Love and Hatred" by Marie Belloc Lowndes is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book delves into complex emotional relationships and the nuances of love, particularly focusing on the intertwined feelings of Laura Pavely and Oliver Tropenell, as well as Laura's relationship with her husband, Godfrey Pavely. With themes of desire, betrayal, and societal expectations, the narrative explores the consequences of passion and the struggles faced by its characters. At the start of the story, we are introduced to Laura Pavely, who experiences a profound emotional struggle after Oliver confesses his love for her during a seemingly innocent meeting in a summer house. Despite their prior friendship, Laura is taken aback by Oliver's feelings, leading to a tense exchange where she expresses her disappointment and contempt for the idea of love, viewing it as degrading. Meanwhile, Oliver grapples with his unyielding love for Laura, torn between his attachment to her and the reality of her marriage to Godfrey. The opening sets the stage for the unfolding drama, hinting at the complexities and heartaches that will arise as these characters confront their conflicting emotions and desires.
