Summary |
"More About Peggy" by Mrs. George de Horne Vaizey is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around Peggy Saville, a young woman navigating the complex social world as she embarks on a journey homeward from India to England, filled with reflections on her past and hopes for her future, including potential romantic entanglements. At the start of the novel, the setting is established on a P and O steamer gliding through the Bay of Bengal as passengers begin their voyage to England. Among them is Peggy, who is excited to return home after years abroad. She encounters Major Hector Darcy, an old acquaintance from her childhood, and their interaction sets the stage for a budding friendship, rekindling connections that hint at deeper romantic developments. The beginning captures the characters' personalities, the societal dynamics of the time, and hints at themes of belonging and nostalgia as they all face the changing tides of their lives.
