Summary "The Sorceress" by Mrs. Oliphant is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the Kingsward family, particularly focusing on the youthful and spirited Bee, as she navigates the excitement and complexities of love and engagement in an era marked by social expectations and family dynamics. Set against a backdrop of travel and romance, it explores the family's reactions to Bee's engagement with Aubrey Leigh and the resulting tensions that arise. The opening of the novel introduces the Kingsward family, detailing their vibrant dynamics and the excitement generated by Bee's recent engagement to Mr. Aubrey Leigh. Mrs. Kingsward's slight health issues spark anxiety yet do not diminish the family's joys during their travels. We witness the playful and romantic encounters between Bee and Aubrey, and the initial happiness surrounding their engagement starts to evolve into tension following the arrival of mysterious letters that implicate Aubrey in troubling matters. This sets the stage for the unfolding drama, revealing the complexities of love, family loyalty, and societal expectations, all of which will heavily influence the narrative as it progresses.
