| Summary | "The Son of His Father; vol. 2/3" by Mrs. Oliphant is a novel written in the late 19th century. This book continues the story of John May, a young man embarking on a new chapter of his life as he faces the challenges of adulthood and family dynamics in the bustling environment of London. The narrative explores themes of identity, familial duty, and the search for one's place in the world, particularly through the eyes of the main character as he grapples with his past and uncertain future. The opening of the novel sees John leaving his quiet life behind for London, where he is met with feelings of isolation and apprehension. As he takes this journey with his mother, Mrs. Sandford, the dynamics of their relationship become strained due to John's feelings of abandonment and her stern demeanor. After arriving in the city, John quickly finds himself overwhelmed by the chaos around him. His sense of disconnection from both his family and his new environment deepens when he attempts to understand his role and navigate the complexities of life in a bustling metropolis, while also facing an unexpected incident where he saves a child from danger, further complicating his experiences and relations with his mother and sister, Susie.
