Summary: "The Caxtons: A Family Picture — Volume 07" by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton is a novel written during the Victorian era, which spanned the 19th century. The book revolves around the dynamics of the Caxton family, with a focus on the protagonist, Pisistratus Caxton, as well as the relationships that unfold among family members and their acquaintances. It likely explores themes of ambition, love, and the navigation of societal expectations. In this volume, the narrative delves into the life of Pisistratus as he grapples with his scholarly ambitions while navigating the complexities of familial relationships, particularly with his father, Mr. Caxton, and his interactions with other characters such as Sir Sedley Beaudesert and Fanny Trevanion. The story illustrates the contrast between scholarly pursuits and the actions of those who move easily within societal circles.
