Between Whiles is a novel written by Helen Hunt Jackson, originally published in 1881. The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the lives of two sisters, Gertrude and Mildred, who are orphaned and left to fend for themselves. Gertrude is the elder sister, responsible and practical, while Mildred is carefree and impulsive. The novel explores themes of love, family, and duty as the sisters navigate their way through life's challenges. Gertrude falls in love with a man named Harold, but their relationship is complicated by his past and her sense of duty to her family. Meanwhile, Mildred pursues her own romantic interests and struggles to find her place in the world.As the sisters grow and change, they must confront their own desires and the expectations of society. Jackson's writing is characterized by her vivid descriptions of nature and her nuanced portrayal of human emotions. Between Whiles is a timeless story of sisterhood and self-discovery that continues to resonate with readers today.John was gone. Flight was his usual refuge when he felt his temper becoming too much for him; but now his steps were quickened by an impulse of terrible fear. Between him and his sister had always been a bond closer than is wont to link brother and sister. Only one year apart in age, they had grown up together in an intimacy like that of twins; from their cradles till now they had had their sports, tastes, joys, sorrows in common, not a secret from each other since they could remember.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
