The Adventures of Harry Richmond — Volume 1 by George Meredith

"The Adventures of Harry Richmond — Volume 1" by George Meredith is a romance novel published in 1870–71. Young Harry Richmond is caught between two worlds: his grandfather's respectable estate at Riversley and his father Roy's mysterious schemes and grand ambitions. When his flamboyant father abducts him from his wealthy grandfather's care, Harry embarks on a journey from English boarding schools to German courts, encountering gypsies, princesses, and adventures that blur the line between aspiration and deception. This semi-autobiographical tale follows one boy's coming-of-age amid family conflict and his father's enigmatic plans. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
