| Summary | "A Yellow Aster, Volume 2 (of 3)" by Mrs. Mannington Caffyn is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the character Sir Humphrey Strange, who has unexpectedly inherited wealth and status, as well as the complex dynamics of his relationships, particularly with Lady Mary and Gwen Waring. As the novel unfolds, it appears to explore themes of social expectation, identity, love, and the nature of self-discovery. At the start of this volume, Sir Humphrey Strange grapples with the consequences of his newfound title and wealth, receiving the news of his inheritance from Lady Mary. Their conversation reveals Strange's flippant attitude toward his responsibilities, which contrasts with Lady Mary's more serious perspective on family legacies. The introduction of Gwen Waring adds further tension to the narrative, as Strange finds himself drawn to her while simultaneously confronting his feelings of inadequacy and the societal pressures that come with their circumstances. The opening sets the stage for themes of personal evolution and emotional conflict as the characters navigate their relationships against the backdrop of societal expectations and individual desires.
