For love and life Vol. II is a narrative that delves into the complexities of love, duty, and personal sacrifice within the confines of social expectations. Set against a backdrop of financial hardship, the story explores the intricate dynamics of a family grappling with loss, aging, and the responsibilities tied to tradition and pride. The struggles of an elderly woman as she confronts the diminishing possibilities for herself and her family reflect a broader conflict between maintaining dignity and facing unavoidable change. The internal and external pressures faced by the characters illustrate the tension between individual desires and the greater demands placed on them by family obligations and societal norms. The story also touches on the complexities of love and relationships, emphasizing the difficult choices that arise when personal aspirations clash with familial responsibility. Through these relationships, the novel explores the emotional depth and nuances of sacrifice, personal growth, and the endurance of human connection in the face of adversity. The narrative is an exploration of resilience, the burdens of duty, and the emotional struggles that shape personal and familial lives.
Autorenporträt
Margaret Oliphant was a Scottish author and historical writer who usually wrote under the name Mrs. Oliphant. She was born Margaret Oliphant Wilson on April 4, 1828, and died on June 20, 1897. She writes "domestic realism, the historical novel, and tales of the supernatural" as her short stories. Margaret Oliphant was born in Wallyford, near Musselburgh, East Lothian. She was the only daughter and youngest child still living of Margaret Oliphant (c. 1789 17 September 1854) and Francis W. Wilson, a clerk. We lived in Lasswade, Glasgow, and Liverpool when she was a child. In Wallyford, a street called Oliphant Gardens is named after her. As a girl, she was always trying new things with writing. Passages in the Life of Mrs. Margaret Maitland, her first book, came out in 1849. This was about the mostly successful Scottish Free Church movement, which was something her folks agreed with. Next came Caleb Field in 1851, the same year she met publisher William Blackwood in Edinburgh and was asked to write for Blackwood's Magazine. She did so for the rest of her life and wrote over 100 articles, including one that criticized Arthur Dimmesdale in Nathaniel Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter".
