Summary "The Romance of My Childhood and Youth" by Juliette Adam is a memoir written in the early 20th century. The book reflects on the author's formative years, vividly recounting her experiences growing up in a family rich in eccentricity and romance. It delves into the complex relationships she shared with significant figures in her life, particularly her grandmother and father, while painting a broader picture of the societal influences of her time. At the start of the memoir, the author introspects on her remarkable memories from childhood, establishing a reflective tone. She shares early insights into her upbringing under the care of her grandmother, who infused a passion for adventure and romance into her life. This duality of affection from both her grandmother and her father leads her to contemplate her own identity amidst their contrasting influences. The narrative sets the stage for a blend of personal history and familial anecdotes that will unfold in the chapters to come, providing a glimpse into the intricacies of her early family dynamics.
