The Heart of the Ancient Wood
1900

The Heart of the Ancient Wood, published in 1900 by Charles G. D. Sir Roberts, is a novel set in late 19th-century New Brunswick. It follows a mother and daughter who retreat to the woods to escape small-town gossip, where they build a life and connect with the local wildlife. The story explores themes of human-nature coexistence and the complexities of relationships, particularly through the character Miranda, who faces a moral dilemma when her childhood romance is challenged by differing views on nature. Notable for its vivid descriptions of the forest and its inhabitants, the book highlights the tension between civilization and the wilderness.
