Summary

"Gadsby: A Story of Over 50,000 Words Without Using the Letter 'E'" by Ernest Vincent Wright is a remarkable book from the 1930s, known for its unusual writing style, avoiding a commonly used part of writing. It probably talks about John Gadsby, who wants to show young folks in Branton Hills that good can occur. Themes of community, pushing for change, and making good on young folks potential, all look into Gadsby, who finds that boys and girls can work hard for Branton Hills to grow. At first, the story talks about Gadsby’s hard work, and how kids can bring change and want to study and grow, not just act dumb. This collaboration starts an organization with boys and girls who want to fix Branton Hills, in a happy and forward way. From the looks of it, this book is full of character growth, and showing how folks do in this society.
