| 520 | _a"The Next of Kin: Those Who Wait and Wonder" by Nellie L. McClung is a reflective work written in the early 20th century. This book captures the voices and experiences of women during World War I, particularly focusing on their fears, hopes, and the profound changes brought about by the war. The opening portion presents a range of characters, mainly mothers and community leaders, as they navigate the uncertainty and heartache of having loved ones serving in the war, while also contemplating their roles in society. The opening of the book establishes a cold and bleak November backdrop as the narrator prepares to speak at a meeting for the Red Cross Society. The atmosphere is tense amid the war's harsh realities, but a conversation unfolds where women share their grief and determination regarding the war's impact. One particular character, who has lost her son, voices profound concerns about the devastating effects of war on humanity and emphasizes the need for women to unite for peace. The dialogue touches on themes of loss, resilience, and the call for action, setting a stage for the exploration of women's evolving roles during this tumultuous time. Overall, the beginning illustrates the emotional landscape faced by the next of kin as they wait and wonder about their loved ones on the front lines.
