Summary "The Weavers: a tale of England and Egypt of fifty years ago - Volume 2" by Gilbert Parker is a historical novel written during the late 19th century. The story intricately weaves together the lives of characters in England and Egypt, exploring themes of love, responsibility, and societal expectations. In the opening chapters, we meet Faith and Soolsby, whose dialogue reveals their deep connection to an Egyptian man named David, as well as the complexities of their feelings about love and duty. At the start of the narrative, we find Faith contemplating her past choices and current life circumstances, particularly regarding her dedication to caring for her father and her relationship with David, who has been absent for three years. The exchange between Faith and Soolsby touches upon potential suitors and her reluctance to marry while remaining devoted to her father and David, who she believes will return and need her. As the chapters progress, the arrival of a new political figure, Lord Eglington, brings tension and deeper connections as characters navigate their intertwined fates. Notably, themes of personal sacrifice, loyalty, and the impact of societal roles emerge, setting the stage for further developments in their lives as they confront their past and decisions about the future.
