The Disowned — Volume 02 by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton Lytton
"The Disowned — Volume 02" by Baron Edward Bulwer-Lytton is a novel written during the early 19th century. The narrative follows the character Clarence Linden, a young man navigating the complexities of society and interpersonal relationships amidst a backdrop of philosophical musings and explorations of human nature. This installment delves into Clarence's experiences with various characters, notably the eccentric Copperas family, as he assesses themes of vanity, ambition, and the contrasting aspirations
of individuals around him. The opening of the novel introduces us to Clarence as he settles into "Copperas Bower," the home of Mrs. Copperas, where eccentricity and domestic life take center stage. Characters like the humorous Mr. Copperas and the sentimental Mrs. Copperas are portrayed in a comical light as they interact with Clarence, who observes their behaviors with a blend of dismay and amusement. Meanwhile, the narrative hints at Clarence's struggles with forming meaningful connections, as he finds more solace in the company of likeminded individuals like Mr. Talbot and the aspiring artist Warner. The stage is set for further exploration of love, ambition, and the impact of social environments on personal growth as Clarence grapples with his place in a world that casts him as an outsider.
