For love and life; vol. 2 of 2 by Mrs. Oliphant
"For Love and Life; Vol. 2 of 2" by Mrs. Oliphant is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story explores the emotional awakening of Edgar Earnshaw as he grapples with love and responsibility, particularly in relation to Gussy Thornleigh and his newfound appreciation for his own worth. The novel intricately weaves the lives of its characters, exploring themes of sacrifice, ambition, and the intertwining dynamics of human relationships." "At
the start of the novel, Edgar experiences a significant shift in his perspective when he realizes that his happiness is intertwined with that of Gussy, reinforcing his desire to pursue meaningful work and prove his worth. This realization invigorates him, contrasting with his previous stagnation. Meanwhile, his encounters with Lady Mary and her family lead to tensions surrounding social status and romantic interest, especially as he reconnects with his cousin, Dr. Charles Murray, and meets Margaret, Charles’s beautiful sister, who adds further complexity to his emotional landscape. This opening sets the stage for a deeper exploration of love's challenges and the search for one's place in society." (This is an automatically generated summary.)
