| Summary | "The House of Fulfilment" by George Madden Martin is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Harriet Blair and her family as they navigate the complexities of love, duty, and social expectations in a post-Civil War Southern society. Themes of familial ties and individual desires are explored as Harriet grapples with her own feelings while observing the dynamics of her relatives' relationships. The opening of the novel introduces Harriet Blair, a seventeen-year-old girl who travels to New Orleans with her family for her brother Alexander's wedding. This initial chapter lays the groundwork for Harriet’s character, depicting her as a reserved and observant young woman who struggles to understand the nature of love and relationships. As the story unfolds, Harriet reflects on the contrasting personalities within her family, including her wealthy and stern father and her carefree sister-in-law. The narrative hints at the familial tensions and societal expectations that will shape Harriet's journey, setting the stage for her emotional growth and personal dilemmas as the story progresses.
