| Summary | "A Strange World: A Novel. Volume 3 (of 3)" by M. E. Braddon is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative follows the character Maurice Clissold as he engages with the tragic life of Mrs. Trevanard, who grapples with illness and the intertwined sorrows of her family, particularly concerning her daughter Muriel, who has lost her sanity due to a dark past. The exploration of deep emotional themes such as guilt, redemption, and the complexities of family dynamics unfolds throughout the story. The opening of the novel introduces a poignant atmosphere as Maurice Clissold dedicates himself to caring for the ailing Mrs. Trevanard, who reveals her inner struggles and regrets regarding her daughter. As Maurice tends to her, their conversations probe deeper themes of sin, repentance, and the burdens of family secrets, particularly concerning Muriel's unresolved past and the child she gave away. The multitude of emotions they explore hints at a hidden history that intertwines their lives, setting the stage for a lasting impact that will resonate throughout the unfolding narrative. The focus on guilt and the search for redemption create a rich backdrop for the story's developments. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
