520			_a"The Story of Waitstill Baxter" by Kate Douglas Smith Wiggin is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the life of Waitstill Baxter, a young woman grappling with familial obligations, societal expectations, and her own desires as she navigates the complexities of her household and village life. The opening portion introduces us to the picturesque setting of the Saco River in New Hampshire, highlighting the flow of life and nature around the small villages of Edgewood and Riverboro. It introduces us to Waitstill as a child, observing a colorful procession, while providing insights into her challenging family life under the stern rule of her father, Deacon Baxter. As Waitstill matures, the narrative delves into her relationship with her younger sister Patience and their struggle to find moments of joy and autonomy in their oppressive environment. The dynamics between the sisters, especially their contrasting personalities and aspirations amidst their father's strictness, set the stage for the unfolding story of longing and resilience.
