| 520 | _a"Why Joan?" by Eleanor Mercein Kelly is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows the protagonist, young Joan Darcy, who has just graduated from a convent school and embarks on a journey back home, grappling with her emotions and the weight of her past, particularly the absence of her deceased mother. As Joan faces the realities of her family's situation, including the impact of wealth and social status, she navigates her relationships and seeks to carve out her identity amidst changes in her life. The opening of the novel introduces Joan as she travels in a Pullman, reflecting on her recent graduation and the bittersweet feelings surrounding it. Observing the various passengers, she reveals her inner thoughts, emotions of loss, and a mix of pride and vulnerability. The narrative builds on her memories of her mother and the anticipation of returning home, while setting the stage for the complexities of her family dynamics, particularly with her father, Richard Darcy, and a looming sense of responsibility that comes with adult life. As Joan assesses her expectations versus the reality awaiting her, the groundwork is laid for her emotional journey and the challenges she will encounter in relation to her father’s new marriage and her own identity.
