Summary "A Strange Story — Volume 02" by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton is a novel likely written in the mid-19th century. The story revolves around the life of Allen Fenwick, a physician deeply entwined in the struggles of love and medical ethics, as he grapples with feelings for Lilian Ashleigh, a delicate and somewhat mysterious young woman whose health is a source of worry and concern. The opening of this volume introduces Allen Fenwick as he receives a summons from Mrs. Poyntz, who is keen on determining the best course for Lilian's treatment. As Allen navigates his feelings of affection for Lilian and the complex dynamics surrounding her family and medical care, he finds himself in moral dilemmas regarding loyalty and professionalism. Throughout their conversation, Mrs. Poyntz emphasizes the need for caution and encourages him to consider whether he is prepared for the emotional burdens that may come with being attached to a woman who could be a lifelong patient. The initial chapters set the stage for exploring themes of love, responsibility, and the intersection of personal desire with the demands of one's profession.
