"Henry Northcote" by J. C. Snaith is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers on the titular character, Henry Northcote, a struggling barrister who finds himself at the brink of poverty and despair. Set against the backdrop of an unforgiving winter in London, the narrative delves into Northcote's internal struggles as he grapples with ambition, societal expectations, and a fleeting encounter that could change the course of his life. At the start of the book, Northcote is introduced in his drafty chambers during a harsh December evening, contemplating his dire circumstances and the precariousness of his situation. He has been at the bar for six years without achieving significant success and is now facing potential homelessness. Just as he is lost in his thoughts, a mysterious visitor named Mr. Iggs appears, who offers cryptic insights about Northcote's potential and destiny. Their conversation ignites a spark of ambition within Northcote, prompting him to reflect on his life choices, aspirations, and the possibility of a more distinguished future, despite the overwhelming odds stacked against him.
