"Somehow Good" by William De Morgan is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story begins with an unnamed man who has just returned from a sea voyage and finds himself in London without any clear memory of his past. The protagonist, described as an exceptionally well-built man, navigates the city while grappling with his sudden amnesia and an unexpected encounter that hints at a more tumultuous backstory involving violence
and intrigue. At the start of the narrative, the man attempts to secure the funds he believes are waiting for him at a bank. However, he faces the harsh reality of having no credit as he finds himself drawn into a chaotic scene involving a domestic violence incident in a slum. This confrontation reveals his instinct to help, leading to a physical altercation with a drunken aggressor. The opening chapters not only set up his mysterious circumstances but also introduce potential key characters, including the Nightingale family, who play a significant role in his journey to reclaim both his identity and place in society amidst the unfolding drama.
