Tradition

Tradition is a novel written by Marie Van Vorst that explores the clash between traditional values and modernity. The story is set in a small town in France where a wealthy American woman, Mrs. Sheridan, has come to live with her daughter, Jeanne. Mrs. Sheridan is a strong-willed woman who firmly believes in the importance of tradition and is determined to instill these values in her daughter. However, Jeanne is a modern young woman who is eager to embrace the new ideas and ways of life that are emerging in the world.As the story unfolds, the conflict between Mrs. Sheridan and Jeanne intensifies, with each woman struggling to assert her own beliefs and values. Along the way, they encounter a cast of characters who represent different attitudes towards tradition, including a conservative priest, a progressive doctor, and a group of local peasants who are torn between their desire for change and their loyalty to the past.Through their interactions and conflicts, the novel explores the complexities of tradition and the challenges of navigating the changing world. It ultimately asks the question of whether tradition is something to be preserved or something to be transcended, and what role it should play in shaping our lives and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
