| Summary |
"Barbara in Brittany" by E. A. Gillie is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a young girl named Barbara as she navigates her family life and personal growth, particularly in connection with her aunt Anne and various adventures that take place in Brittany, including a significant journey to France and the challenges she faces while adjusting to new surroundings and responsibilities. The opening portion of the novel introduces the reader to Barbara's home life, focusing on her relationship with her siblings and the arrival of her aunt, Anne. The chapter paints a picture of a lively household, full of chatter and youthful mischief, and Barbara’s attempt to manage her siblings’ behavior while preparing for Aunt Anne's visit. As the visit unfolds, it becomes clear that Aunt Anne holds a strict view on discipline, which contrasts with Barbara's more nurturing approach. This sets the stage for further developments as Barbara prepares for her journey to France and the experiences that will test her resilience and character.
