N2  - "Heriot's Choice: A Tale" by Rosa Nouchette Carey is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around Mildred Lambert, a woman who, after a long period of caregiving for her ailing mother, is called upon to help her brother Arnold after the death of his wife. The narrative explores themes of duty, family bonds, and the emotional turmoil associated with loss as Mildred transitions from her solitary life into a dynamic family environment.  The opening of the book introduces Mildred as she contemplates her stagnant existence and the responsibilities that await her in her brother's home. Following the death of her mother and her sister-in-law, Mildred feels the weight of her past life and considers whether she will be able to fulfill her new role successfully. In her brother's letters, she sees a call to action and the potential for rekindling her own sense of purpose. The narrative also introduces her new charge, Polly, Dr. Heriot's ward, hinting at the complexity of relationships and the adjustments both characters must make as they navigate their new paths in life.
