Maud is deeply in love with a man named Frank, but her father disapproves of their relationship due to Frank’s lower social status. Maud’s father is determined to break them up and marry her off to a wealthy suitor, but Maud refuses to give up on her love for Frank. As the story progresses, Maud’s father becomes increasingly aggressive in his attempts to separate the young couple. Maud is eventually forced to leave her family home and live with Frank in poverty. The couple faces numerous challenges and setbacks, but their love for each other remains strong. The Outcast of the Family explores themes of love, pride, and social class.
