Summary: "The Adventures of Harry Richmond — Complete" by George Meredith is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Harry Lepel Richmond, a young boy caught in the emotional turmoil stemming from his family's conflicts, particularly concerning his father and mother. The narrative unfolds through Harry's eyes as he navigates childhood adventures, family complexities, and societal expectations. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Riversley Grange, where Harry lives with his grandfather, the Squire Beltham, and other members of the family.
