| Summary | "Christina" by L. G. Moberly is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the titular character, Christina, a young woman facing dire circumstances after the loss of her parents, struggling to find work and a place to belong in a bustling London." "The opening of the novel introduces readers to a group of male characters sharing a smoking room in a grand manor, where playful jests about matrimonial advertisements unfold. Young Jack Layton proposes a practical joke involving a matrimonial ad aimed at his bachelor cousin, Rupert Mernside, causing concern and amusement among his friends. Meanwhile, Christina, who is introduced in the subsequent chapter, is living in a state of desperation, seeking work as a governess while grappling with her own loneliness and uncertainty. Her brief glance at a matrimonial column serves as a pivotal moment that links her fate with the male characters and sets the stage for the developing narrative."
