May; vol. II by Mrs. Oliphant
"May; vol. II" by Mrs. Oliphant is a novel written during the late 19th century. This work continues the story of Marjory Hay-Heriot, a young woman navigating her newfound emptiness after significant losses in her family. The narrative likely delves into themes of grief, duty, and the search for meaning in life after the loss of one's role in a family and community. At the start of the novel, Marjory is returning
to her old home after the tragic deaths of her father and two brothers. She is enveloped in nostalgia, recalling her childhood memories and feeling both joy and pain in remembrance. As she settles back into her daily routine, Marjory grapples with her sense of identity and purpose, having dedicated her life to her family's well-being. The quiet and introspective atmosphere of her new surroundings contrasts with her inner turmoil, leading her to confront deep feelings of loss and the realization that her previous responsibilities have vanished, leaving her feeling adrift. She begins to encounter new relationships and the complexities that come with them, all while reflecting on her past and looking for her place in a changed world.
