| Summary | "The Three Fates" by F. Marion Crawford is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around George Wood, a young man struggling with his identity and aspirations in the shadow of his father's financial ruin and past failures. As George navigates his literary ambitions while resisting the conventional paths expected by his father, the narrative explores themes of family expectations, societal pressures, and the pursuit of personal fulfillment. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to Jonah Wood, George's father, who is disillusioned and disappointed with his son for not following a traditional career path in business. George, on the other hand, has developed an aversion to the world of finance, stemming from his father's catastrophic failures linked to their family legacy. Despite his father's hopes, George immerses himself in writing and literary criticism, feeling unfulfilled yet determined to define his own future. In an encounter with Constance and Grace Fearing, two orphaned sisters, George experiences a mixture of intrigue and discomfort, reflecting his inner turmoil and the struggle between his artistic ambitions and the societal expectations that weigh heavily upon him.
