| Summary | "The Carved Cupboard" by Amy Le Feuvre is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around four orphaned sisters, Agatha, Gwendoline, Clare, and Elfrida, who face significant upheaval when their wealthy aunt passes away, leaving their home to a scheming cousin named James. As they navigate their new reality, the sisters grapple with themes of independence, familial bonds, and the search for a new place to call home, all while dealing with the shadows of the past and their uncertain future. The opening of the novel introduces us to the sisters in a cozy London drawing-room, where they are discussing the changes brought about by their aunt's death and James' unwelcome presence in their lives. Agatha assumes the role of the calm leader, while Gwendoline expresses her disdain for James and worries about their financial situation. Clare appears introspective, reflecting on her engagement and the impending changes, and Elfie brings a sense of youthful curiosity to the group. As they contemplate their options, including a potential move to the country, we see the group's dynamics at play, laying the groundwork for their journey of self-discovery and adventure amidst their trials.
