Summary "Jane Field: A Novel" by Mary Eleanor Wilkins Freeman is a work of fiction written in the late 19th century. The novel centers around the lives of Mrs. Jane Field and Amanda Pratt as they navigate personal struggles and dilemmas in a rural community. The narrative explores themes of familial obligations, societal expectations, and the simple yet profound aspects of community life. The opening of the story introduces Amanda Pratt and her cottage, setting a vivid scene of her home and her personality through her interactions with Mrs. Babcock. The dialogue reveals their contrasting perspectives on work and life, particularly regarding Amanda's dedication to sewing braided rugs, which seems to symbolize her need for stability and control amidst the unfolding drama in their lives. Meanwhile, the concern about Lois Field, Jane's daughter, hints at deeper family struggles, foreshadowing personal trials that the characters will face. The dynamics between neighbors, the daily routines, and the undercurrents of worry and care establish a foundation for a poignant exploration of loneliness, illness, and resilience in the face of life's challenges.
