Within the maze: A novel Vol. II explores how loyalty, emotional imbalance, and inherited duty shape individual identity within a rigid domestic structure. It examines the quiet struggle of those caught between affection and indifference, as unequal bonds within a household affect decisions, perception, and self-worth. The pressure of familial legacy and societal standing exerts a heavy influence on characters whose ambitions are often overshadowed by emotional obligations or neglect. Questions of justice, favoritism, and unmet expectations frame the narrative, deepening the sense of personal constraint and internal unrest. Tension builds as romantic interests and long-standing grievances intersect, revealing how personal desires must be negotiated amid social roles and inherited burdens. It reflects on the psychological toll of being overlooked or idealized, showing how past allegiances and unresolved family dynamics complicate choices. The novel ultimately confronts the consequences of repression, unmet longing, and the persistence of unspoken rivalries under the weight of tradition and expectation.
Autorenporträt
Ellen Wood, widely known under the name Mrs. Henry Wood, was a prolific English novelist born on January 17, 1814, in England. Her literary career gained widespread popularity in both Britain and abroad, especially after the publication of her most renowned work East Lynne in 1861. Her writing style combined elements of mystery, morality, and domestic life, contributing to her lasting appeal during the Victorian period. She married Henry Wood in 1836, and they had a son named Charles Wood. After her husband's death in 1866, she supported her family through her writing and editorial work. She also managed the magazine Argosy, to which she contributed both fiction and editorial commentary. Though many of her novels are lesser known today, her stories enjoyed international readership during her lifetime and were especially well-received in the United States and Australia. In Australia, her popularity once exceeded that of Charles Dickens. Ellen Wood died in London on February 10, 1887, at the age of 73 and was buried in Highgate Cemetery. Her parents were Thomas Price and Elizabeth Price.
