Produktbeschreibung
The Disowned Volume 4 by Edward Bulwer-Lytton, written in the mid-19th century, continues the journey of Clarence Linden as he grapples with issues of identity, rejection, and societal pressure. The story explores themes of honor, ambition, and the search for one's true self against the backdrop of high society and social intrigue. At the start of the volume, Clarence is emotionally shaken after being disowned by his father, feeling the weight of his rejection while finding some solace in his benefactor, Talbot, who encourages him to embrace his true nature. However, Clarence's self-worth is continually challenged by the elitist attitudes of figures like Lord Borodaile, who looks down on him. The narrative deepens as Clarence becomes entangled in romantic and social complexities, particularly with La Meronville, whose love life complicates his own. Tensions heighten following a confrontation with Borodaile, which leads to a duel over honor, drawing Clarence further into a web of conflict, with his personal battles reflecting broader societal struggles.
