| 520 | _a"Tension" by E. M. Delafield is a novel written in the early 20th century." The story introduces a variety of characters, including Aunt Iris, who has written a provocative book titled "Why, Ben! A Story of the Sexes," and her unwitting young niece, Ruthie, who announces this news to Lady Rossiter and Sir Julian Rossiter during breakfast. The narrative alludes to family dynamics, societal expectations, and the way personal interests clash within a seemingly genteel community. "The opening of "Tension" sets a lively and chaotic scene at the Rossiter household, as young Ruthie eagerly shares the news of her aunt's book, bringing about varying reactions of shock and disbelief from the adults." As the children, Ruthie and her brother Ambrose, display their excitement about Aunt Iris's literary endeavor, their behaviors invite both humor and exasperation from Sir Julian and Lady Rossiter. The mention of Aunt Iris's book not only serves as a catalyst for the conversation but also hints at underlying themes of gender dynamics and the expectations placed upon women of the era, particularly through the scandalous title and subject matter of the book itself. This lively introduction promises a narrative that will explore tension—not just in relationships but in societal norms and personal aspirations as well.
