'Imperialist' Summary
In "The Imperialist," Sara Jeannette Duncan paints a vivid portrait of life in small-town Ontario at the dawn of the 20th century. Against the backdrop of a society wrestling with its national identity, the novel follows the intertwined lives of several characters caught in a web of romantic entanglements. As they navigate the complexities of love and relationships, they also grapple with the larger questions of loyalty, belonging, and the future of their country.
