| Summary |
"Evan Harrington — Volume 7" by George Meredith is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around Evan Harrington, a young tailor navigating the intricate social dynamics of Victorian society. Central to the story are themes of identity, social standing, and romantic entanglements as Evan grapples with his place in a world that often scorns those of lower status. At the start of the novel, the setting is established in Mr. Goren's tailor shop, which serves as a refuge from the turmoil of the outside world. Evan reflects on his past heartbreak from Rose and his current burdens while interacting with Mr. Goren, the shop's proprietor. The opening reveals Evan's struggles with feelings of inadequacy and shame associated with his occupation, alongside hints of a deeper emotional narrative involving Juliana, Rose, and Caroline. The dynamics intensify as a carriage arrives, bringing a woman who has urgent news for Evan, setting the stage for a complex web of relationships and events that will unfold throughout the narrative.
