| 520 | _a"My Uncle Florimond" by Henry Harland is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story introduces a young boy named Gregory Brace, who is raised by his strict Uncle Peter after his parents' deaths, and is deeply influenced by his loving grandmother, a French émigré. This familial dynamic sets the stage for Gregory's struggles and aspirations, particularly concerning his idolized Uncle Florimond, who resides in France and embodies the nobility and gallantry that Gregory admires. The opening of the book details Gregory's troubled childhood living under the oppressive guardianship of Uncle Peter, whose stern demeanor sparks fear in the boy. He fondly remembers his grandmother's kindness and her stories about Uncle Florimond, which fill him with wonder and longing. As the narrative unfolds, Gregory receives a beautiful golden-hilted sword from his grandmother and a coveted book from Florimond, igniting his ambition to emulate his uncle's nobility. Yet, the darkening events caused by war and personal loss lead to a pivotal moment in Gregory’s life, pushing him to seek a new future—ultimately leading him to New York City for opportunities and self-discovery.
