Summary "My Novel" — Volume 09 by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton is a work of fiction written during the mid-19th century. The narrative opens with themes revolving around public and private life and introduces various characters, particularly focusing on the Caxton family and the exiled Italian Riccabocca and his daughter, Violante. The work explores the complexities of social obligations and personal identity, creating a vibrant backdrop for the intertwining lives of its characters. At the start of the novel, the protagonist reflects on public life, contrasting it with the necessity of maintaining personal identity and private life. As the narrative unfolds, we are introduced to Riccabocca, who is in England under the threat of a powerful enemy, Count Peschiera, who desires to marry his daughter. Faced with doubts about their safety and well-being, Riccabocca takes precautions to protect his family while grappling with the implications of his daughter’s potential marriage and the complexities that arise from their situation in society. This opening sets the stage for engaging conflicts involving love, ambition, and social standing, establishing a rich narrative landscape that promises to delve deeper into the dilemmas faced by the characters.
