| Summary | "Grandmother: The Story of a Life That Never Was Lived" by Laura E. Richards is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around a young girl referred to as Grandmother, who is brought to live with her elderly grandfather in a quaint village. As she navigates her new life, the narrative explores themes of love, loss, and the quest for happiness amid complexities of human relationships. At the start of the book, we meet Grandmother, a delicate and beautiful young woman who arrives in the village alongside her grandfather after spending time in the western territories. Observers mistake her for a visiting relative, only to learn that she has been brought back as a companion to her grandfather, who is concerned about the volatile nature of his granddaughter, Rachel. The initial chapters introduce Rachel's hostility towards Grandmother’s presence, which sets the stage for the tension and emotional struggles that will unfold. Mysterious figures from Grandmother's past, her gentle spirit, and the complexities of familial love and jealousy begin to emerge, hinting at the deeper narrative of loss and the desire to find a place in a world of tumultuous relationships.
