| Summary | "On With Torchy" by Sewell Ford is a fictional novel written in the early 20th century. The story focuses on the character Torchy, a charming and somewhat cheeky young man, navigating life and love in New York City. The narrative promises a mix of humor, romance, and social commentary as Torchy attempts to win over his love interest, Vee, amid various comedic misadventures. The opening of the novel introduces Torchy in a light-hearted conversation with Mr. Quinn, reflecting on his current job and humorous experiences with Aunty, who disapproves of his interest in Vee. Torchy is determined to see Vee again despite her Aunty's strict opposition. His secret plan to disguise himself as her messenger for a surprise outing sets the stage for a mix of romantically charged encounters and unexpected interruptions, defining his character's endearing persistence amidst humorous social faux pas. As the chapter unfolds, readers are drawn into Torchy's whimsical world filled with intriguing characters and playful situations. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
