Summary "Madam: A Novel" by Mrs. Oliphant is a fictional work written in the late 19th century. This novel intricately explores the complex dynamics of family life, focusing on the character of Rosalind and her relationship with her stepmother, Madam Trevanion. The story delves into themes of love, loyalty, and the difficult balance of domestic happiness amid personal and familial turmoil. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to a finely set drawing-room in a country house, creating an atmosphere of warmth and comfort, yet filled with an undercurrent of tension. The young protagonist, Rosalind, is depicted as anxious and troubled, searching for her mother while suppressing her fears and doubts. Her father's sharp temper adds to her distress, as he berates Madam for her perceived neglect. The narrative unfolds Rosalind's inner conflict—the tension between her love for her stepmother and the disturbing whispers of suspicion regarding her mother's fidelity, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of trust and betrayal as the story progresses.
