The Ordeal of Richard Feverel — Volume 3 by George Meredith
"The Ordeal of Richard Feverel — Volume 3" by George Meredith is a novel published in 1859 that explores the failure of rigid educational systems to control human passion. When Sir Austin Feverel's wife abandons him, he raises their son Richard using "the System"—a strict plan designed to shield the boy from corruption, especially contact with young women. Richard's secret marriage to Lucy Desborough defies his father's control, setting in motion a
tragic chain of events involving seduction, betrayal, and a fateful duel that threatens to destroy everything. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
