| Summary | "Jim Mortimer" by R. S. Warren Bell is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around the titular character, Jim Mortimer, a young surgeon who navigates challenges both personal and professional as he finds his way in life after a series of reckless choices. The novel explores themes of youth, ambition, and the impact of one's actions on their future. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Jim Mortimer, who is on holiday yet frequently engages in medical duties at his grandfather’s asylum and surgery. Jim, known as the “Long ’Un,” is depicted as a tall and carefree medical professional, often managing various patients, including children and the mentally ill. The opening chapters provide a glimpse into his relationships, especially with his grandfather, Dr. Mortimer, who is disappointed in Jim’s behavior and attitude towards life. This familial conflict is compounded by Jim’s easy-going nature, impulsive decisions, and budding affection for Dora Maybury, a post-office clerk. As the plot unfolds, Jim's recklessness leads to unintended consequences, setting the stage for character development and future challenges. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
