Summary | "Mrs. Arthur; vol. 3 of 3" by Mrs. Oliphant is a novel written in the late 19th century. This concluding volume explores the complex emotional and relational aftermath of a troubled marriage between Arthur Curtis and his wife, Nancy. The narrative deals with themes of misunderstandings, personal pride, and societal expectations, primarily focusing on the struggles of the main characters in reconciling their identities and desires. The opening of the book presents a vivid, emotionally charged tableau of Nancy and Arthur's deteriorating marriage following a significant conflict that has led to their separation. Nancy is depicted as a complex character grappling with feelings of humiliation and self-disgust after refusing to mend her relationship with Arthur, who embarks on a painful departure from their home. The emotional turmoil is palpable as both characters confront their failures and societal judgments, revealing the intricate web of expectations, disappointments, and the yearning for autonomy that shapes their lives. As Nancy wakes up to the reality of her new existence, she feels an acute sense of loss, reflecting on the sacrifices and choices that have brought her to this point.
