| Summary | "It May Be True, Vol. 2 (of 3)" by Mrs. Henry Wood is a novel written in the mid-19th century. The narrative revolves around the lives of various characters in a small community, illustrating their interpersonal dynamics, social standings, and emotional struggles. As the story unfolds, themes of pride, jealousy, and the repercussions of past choices become prominent, providing a multifaceted exploration of human relationships. The beginning of the novel introduces readers to Matthew, a pikeman, who is portrayed grappling with his role in the community and his troubled relationship with his wife, Mrs. Marks. Engaging in conversation with Goody Grey, a mysterious woman possessing knowledge of charms, he seeks a means to temper his wife's sharp tongue. The conversation reveals Matthew's anxiety about their relationship, setting the stage for broader themes of discontent and affection among the characters. The opening chapters also hint at other complexities within the community, notably involving characters like William Hodge and Mrs. Linchmore, which adds layers to the overarching narrative surrounding love, loss, and hidden motives.
