| Summary | "The Intrusions of Peggy" by Anthony Hope is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Trix Trevalla, a young widow who is navigating her new life after a difficult marriage. As she sheds her mourning attire and embraces the vibrant world of London society, she grapples with her past and the complexities of her emotions while deciding what kind of life she truly wants. The beginning of the novel introduces Trix as she reflects on her life from her riverside flat, after recently abandoning the trappings of widowhood. She recalls her challenging upbringing and tumultuous marriage as she prepares for a new chapter. Trix's journey is spurred by her encounter with Airey Newton, a shabby yet intriguing man who encourages her to reclaim her life and seek opportunities instead of merely surviving. The narrative quickly unfolds into her efforts to reinvent herself socially while hinting at various romantic entanglements, leading to a significant exploration of identity, love, and ambition.
