Produktbeschreibung
Best laid schemes explores the contrast between expectation and reality as individuals navigate personal ambition and unforeseen circumstances. A young woman, discontent with her quiet existence, unexpectedly finds herself drawn into a world of social intrigue when an invitation leads to encounters that challenge her perception of herself. As she adopts a new persona, she discovers how easily appearances can shift, and how unpredictable human relationships can be. The narrative follows her journey as she struggles with the tension between who she has been and who she wants to become, while those around her reveal their own motivations and hidden desires. The novel delves into themes of identity, reinvention, and the delicate balance between personal aspirations and the forces beyond one's control. As she maneuvers through evolving relationships and unexpected developments, the story raises questions about the limits of free will, the role of fate, and the unpredictability of human nature. With moments of humor and emotional depth, the narrative questions the stability of well-devised plans and the role of chance in shaping one s future.
Autorenporträt
Meredith Nicholson (December 9, 1866 - December 21, 1947) was an American politician, diplomat, and best-selling author from Indiana. Nicholson was born on December 9, 1866, in Crawfordsville, Indiana, to Edward Willis Nicholson and the former Emily Meredith. Nicholson, who was largely self-taught, began his newspaper career at the Indianapolis Sentinel in 1884. He moved to the Indianapolis News the next year, where he stayed until 1897. He wrote Short Flights in 1891 and continued to write poetry and prose until 1928. Nicholson joined the Democratic Party in 1928 and served on the Indianapolis City Council for two years. He progressed through the ranks of the Democratic Party, earning assignments as envoys to Paraguay, Venezuela, and Nicaragua. Nicholson married first Eugenie Clementine Kountze, Herman Kountze's daughter, and then Dorothy Wolfe Lannon, from whom he eventually divorced. Nicholson died in Indianapolis on December 21, 1947, at the age of 81, and was interred in Crown Hill Cemetery.
