| Summary |
"What Will He Do with It? — Volume 06" by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. This installment continues exploring the multi-layered lives and interwoven fates of its characters, particularly focusing on themes of ambition, societal expectations, and personal identity amid the backdrop of Victorian England. The narrative introduces familiar and new characters while hinting at their evolving relationships, aspirations, and potential conflicts. The opening of the book reestablishes a dynamic social scene in Hyde Park, teeming with London’s elite as they engage in leisurely interactions. Key figures like Lionel Haughton, an amicable young soldier, and Frank Vance, a successful painter, are introduced as they discuss personal ambitions and philosophical views on fame. Haughton, who aspires to carve his path in life, reflects on his connections, notably with a mysterious benefactor, Mr. Darrell, while Vance exhibits a jaded attitude towards public acclaim. Their camaraderie and shared aspirations set the stage for the unfolding drama, foreshadowing intertwining destinies as they navigate societal pressures and their personal ambitions.
