Sons and Fathers by Harry Stillwell Edwards
"Sons and Fathers" by Harry Stillwell Edwards is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story appears to explore themes of family, heritage, and the complexities of relationships, particularly between fathers and sons. Key characters introduced in the opening chapters include Edward Morgan, a young man inheriting a substantial estate, and Norton Montjoy, who becomes an important figure in society, seemingly bridging connections between the past and the present. Atthe start of the novel, two young men meet at a small train station in the South in 1888. Edward Morgan, a reserved and introspective man unaware of his familial ties, soon discovers he is the heir of a deceased uncle, John Morgan. As he navigates his new life and digs deeper into his family's history, he encounters Gerald Morgan, a delicate and reclusive figure, hinting at the lingering shadows of the past. Their interactions raise questions about identity, societal expectations, and the impact of family secrets, setting the stage for an intricate exploration of the characters' lives against the backdrop of their inherited legacies.
