The Garotters
1897
The Garotters is a comedic novel by William Dean Howells, first published in 1897. Set in the late 19th century, it explores themes of mistaken identity and social morality through the misadventures of Mr. Roberts, who mistakenly believes he has been robbed. The plot unfolds humorously as Roberts confronts the supposed thief, only to discover he has taken another man's watch. The story culminates in a dinner party where the absurdities of human behavior and societal expectations are revealed.
