A novel written in the late 19th century that explores themes of love, marriage, and travel. At its core, the story follows the newlywed couple, Basil and Isabel March, as they embark on their wedding journey, a trip that symbolizes both their new life together and the complexities of their past relationship. At the start of the novel, the narrative introduces Basil and Isabel as they prepare for their journey, reflecting on their past engagements and the current joy of their marriage. As they navigate the challenges posed by a sudden storm, the couple's dynamic is revealed through their playful banter and contemplative discussions about fate, personal history, and societal norms. The opening sets the tone by interspersing moments of warmth and humor while also hinting at the deeper questions of love and human connection that will unfold throughout their travels. The juxtaposition of their romantic adventure with the chaos of modern American life highlights the underlying tensions in their relationship as they seek enjoyment amidst uncertainty.
