| Summary | "A House Divided Against Itself; vol. 3 of 3" by Mrs. Oliphant is a novel written in the late 19th century. This volume continues the exploration of complex relationships, social dynamics, and emotional struggles among its characters. Central to this part of the narrative is George Gaunt, a young soldier grappling with his feelings for Constance Waring, as well as the societal expectations and implications of his love. At the start of the narrative, we find George Gaunt visiting Lady Markham's home, where he is met with kindness from the women present. However, his past with Constance looms heavily over the gathering, as he struggles to convey the depth of his feelings for her amidst inquiries from Lady Markham and Frances. The tension builds as conversations reveal Frances's deepening emotions regarding Gaunt and her sister, Constance, who is depicted as aloof and unconcerned about the turmoil she inflicts on Gaunt's heart. Lady Markham, aware of potential dangers in their interactions, expresses her concern for both Gaunt and Constance, suggesting a looming conflict between personal desires and societal expectations, indicative of the book's broader themes of love, duty, and personal sacrifice.
