The House of Thane is a novel written by Elizabeth Dejeans and published in 1913. The story is set in Scotland and follows the lives of the Thane family, who are the owners of a large estate called Thanesfield. The family consists of the patriarch, Sir John Thane, his wife Lady Thane, and their three children, Malcolm, Marjorie, and Jean. The novel explores the dynamics of the Thane family as they navigate their way through various challenges and conflicts. Malcolm, the eldest son, is expected to take over the estate and uphold the family’s legacy. However, he is conflicted about his role and desires a life outside of Thanesfield. Marjorie, the middle child, is headstrong and rebellious, often clashing with her parents and brother. Jean, the youngest, is sweet-natured and naive, but also has a hidden strength that emerges as the story progresses. The House of Thane also delves into the romantic relationships of the Thane siblings. Malcolm falls in love with a woman named Florrie, who is deemed unsuitable by his family due to her lower social status. Marjorie falls for a man named Ronald, who is also considered beneath her by her parents. Jean, meanwhile, is courted by a man named David, who is well-respected but harbors a dark secret. As the novel progresses, the Thane family faces various crises, including financial difficulties and a scandal involving Malcolm. The family must come together and rely on each other to overcome these challenges and maintain their standing in society. Overall, The House of Thane is a captivating novel that explores the complexities of family relationships, societal expectations, and the power of love.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
