Set against the backdrop of early twentieth-century Midwest America, the story revolves around the affluent Amberson family, particularly George Amberson Minafer, who clings to outdated notions of gentility amidst a rapidly modernizing society. As the town evolves into a bustling city, the family's once-elegant lifestyle is threatened by encroaching industry and changing social dynamics. This narrative offers a profound exploration of social change and the challenges of adapting to a new era, making it a timeless literary classic.
