Summary

"The Marriage of Elinor" by Mrs. Oliphant is a story set in the late 1800s, centering on a young woman named Elinor as she tries to figure out her feelings for Phil Compton while facing pressure from her family, especially her cousin John Tatham, who has always been there for her. It looks at big ideas like love, what society expects from people, and how tricky relationships can be when the world is changing. The story starts with John Tatham getting a letter about Elinor's engagement, which makes him realize he has feelings for her and worries about her future.
