“Beauchamp's Career — Volume 2” by George Meredith is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. This work continues the story of Nevil Beauchamp, a complex character who grapples with personal ambition, societal expectations, and romantic entanglements while navigating the political landscape of his time. The opening of the second volume begins with a focus on the social and political aftermath of war, as Beauchamp reacts to perceived inequities in how heroes are honored and rewarded by society. He is particularly frustrated by the favoritism shown to certain individuals over others who have equally demonstrated bravery and sacrifice. Amid all this, Beauchamp seeks to pursue a romantic interest in a young French woman, but his ambitions are complicated by misunderstandings and the ongoing influence of his uncle. As the narrative unfolds, Rosamund, his ally, worries about his decisions and associations, particularly with a radical doctor who has gained Beauchamp’s loyalty and shaped his political aspirations. This sets the stage for a deeper exploration of themes such as love, loyalty, and the struggle for personal identity amidst societal pressures. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
