This etext was produced by Pat Castevans and David Widger
"Rhoda Fleming — Volume 2" by George Meredith is a novel likely written during the late 19th century. The narrative delves into the complexities of relationships and societal expectations through the experiences of the main character, Rhoda. As the story unfolds, it explores themes of love, betrayal, and the challenges faced by the characters, particularly focusing on the interactions within the Fleming family and their acquaintances. The opening portion of the novel introduces readers to the character of Algernon, who experiences an unfortunate turn of events after being left without dinner due to a missed engagement. Through his musings and interactions, we see a deep sense of frustration and social commentary on the struggles of gentility contrasted against the backdrop of entertainment and societal expectations. His encounter at the theatre, where Rhoda’s sister, Dahlia, is revealed to be in distress, intertwines their fates. We also catch glimpses of the farmer, Mr. Fleming, and the tension surrounding his family’s dynamics, particularly concerning the absence of his daughter. The narrative sets a tone rife with emotional turmoil and hints at the complex relationships that are to develop throughout the story. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
