Summary "Imprudence" by F.E. Mills Young is a novel written in the early 20th century. It centers around Prudence, a young woman living in the industrial town of Wortheton, who grapples with the expectations imposed by her family and society while longing for a life filled with romance and adventure beyond the confines of her dull existence. The story delves into themes of individuality, social morality, and the pursuit of happiness in a world burdened by conventional values and harsh realities. The opening of the novel paints a vivid picture of the countryside and the town of Wortheton, establishing a contrast between the beauty of nature and the oppressive presence of industrialization. We are introduced to Prudence, who walks through the landscapes with a sense of sadness and discontent, capturing a glimpse of her inner turmoil. As Prudence navigates family dynamics, particularly her relationship with her controlling sister Agatha and the expectations of their wealthy father Mr. Graynor, we see her struggle against the limitations placed upon her. The arrival of the handsome Philip Steele further complicates her yearning for freedom and love, drawing her into feelings and desires she longs to explore amidst the smothering traditional values of her surroundings.
