Summary "Nequa; or, The Problem of the Ages" by Alcanoan O. Grigsby and Mary P. Lowe is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book tells the story of a character named Dr. Thomas H. Day, who receives a life-changing visit from Leo Vincennes, a messenger from his old friend Jack Adams, revealing Jack's deep connection to a world beyond the norms of contemporary society. It suggests themes of exploration, human potential, and the quest for a just society rooted in altruism. The opening of the novel sets the stage in a sanitarium in Kansas City where Dr. Day is reflecting on his past and feeling an inexplicable connection to Jack Adams, a young man from his previous voyage. After a mystifying visit from Leo Vincennes, they discuss the ideals and hopes for a better world that Jack has discovered. The narrative hints at adventure as Day is compelled to embark on a journey that promises to transcend the limitations of current social structures, challenge the status quo, and explore deeper human truths, culminating in a quest for a new civilization founded on principles of equity and compassion.
