Résumé
"A Bevy of Girls" by L. T. Meade explores the themes of duty, family obligations, and personal sacrifice through the story of Marcia Aldworth. Marcia, a beloved teacher at a school in Frankfort, is called back to England due to her stepmother's illness. Her return is met with mixed emotions from her younger stepsisters, Molly, Ethel, and Nesta, who had anticipated freedom from their responsibilities. Marcia, however, insists on sharing the burden of caring for their mother, proposing a schedule that allows her some personal time while ensuring her stepmother is not neglected. This decision causes tension among the sisters, who had hoped Marcia would take on the full responsibility, allowing them to enjoy their youth. The narrative delves into the complexities of familial relationships, highlighting Marcia's struggle to balance her sense of duty with her own needs and aspirations. As the sisters grapple with their new reality, they attempt to navigate their roles within the family, leading to conflicts and a reevaluation of their priorities. The story ultimately underscores the importance of empathy, understanding, and shared responsibility in maintaining family harmony.
