Summary "Sweetapple Cove" by George Van Schaick is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around John Grant, a doctor who has left behind the bustling life of the city to practice medicine in the quiet, coastal village of Sweetapple Cove. The narrative unfolds through Grant's reflections, revealing his motivations, challenges, and the unique characters he meets in this remote community. The opening of the book introduces John Grant's internal conflict as he questions his decision to move to Sweetapple Cove, trading his esteemed career for a life marked by simplicity and service. He describes settling into the village, sharing accommodations with the Barnett family, and becoming the local doctor in a place desperately in need of medical assistance. His interactions with Dora Maclennon, a fellow medical professional, hint at a deeper emotional connection as they navigate their ambitions and feelings amidst the backdrop of robust rural life. The narrative sets the stage for themes of love, duty, and the poignant realities of life in a secluded environment, forming a rich texture for the story that unfolds.
