Indian Summer is a novel by William D. Howells, one of the foremost literary figures of his time and a pioneer of the American realist movement. The book tells the story of a middle-aged man named Theodore Colville who travels to Florence, Italy, to reconnect with a younger woman named Imogene Graham. What follows is a love story haunted by the specter of mortality, as both characters grapple with the realization that their best years may be behind them. Indian Summer is a subtle and nuanced take on the theme of aging, a subject that Howells returns to again and again in his writing.
