Chapter
My Second Stage
My Second Stage begins with a seemingly minor whisper, still vague and barely noticeable, gaining momentum as it finds a place in human thought. What started as idle speculation takes shape like a seed exposed to light, fed by casual curiosity and moments of doubt. As it evolves, the slander acquires a voice, no longer just an idea but a presence with intent, seeking out hosts who might unknowingly harbor its poison and help it spread further. Lena Houghton becomes its next target, and although she enters…-

Chapter
My Fifth Stage
My Fifth Stage begins in a drawing room dimly lit by chandeliers and softly humming with the buzz of a formal dinner party. At the heart of the gathering is Mrs. Selldon, a hostess known more for her generous hospitality than for sparkling conversation. Her greatest social challenge isn’t arranging cutlery or managing menus—it’s managing words. Especially when her companion at the table is none other than Mark Shrewsbury, a celebrated novelist whose penetrating prose unnerves her more than she would…-

My Sixth Stage
My Sixth Stage begins during a particularly airless September in London, where Mark Shrewsbury, an otherwise prolific writer, found himself weighed down by the unrelenting heat and creative inertia. The comfort of his writing chamber offered little relief, and even the familiar rhythm of his typewriter failed to spark motivation. His mind wandered, detached from the manuscript he was laboring over. It was during this uninspired spell that he drifted into the club, looking for companionship or at least…-

My Seventh Stage begins as two journeys are set into motion—one by rail, the other by post. As autumn sunlight bathes the English countryside in warmth, Sigismund Zaluski departs from the peaceful town of Muddleton, answering an unexpected summons from his uncle in Russia. Though the visit is intended to be brief—just a fortnight—he leaves behind his belongings and a tender promise to Gertrude, his fiancée, to return soon. Simultaneously, a letter penned in idle malice—full of falsehoods—makes…-

My Triumphant Finale
My Triumphant Finale begins not with celebration, but with silence—the heavy kind that settles in a prison cell at night when hope has begun to fade. Sigismund Zaluski, a man once full of promise and intellect, finds himself confined not by just stone walls, but by the weight of an accusation rooted in thoughtless gossip. Within those narrow walls, time slows, days blur, and the mind becomes both sanctuary and tormentor. Desperate for a lifeline, he reaches out—not through voice, which the walls…-

Chapter
A Liberal Education
A Liberal Education opens with Dolly Foster observing Phil Meadows, now a polished member of society, pass her by on the Row without the slightest nod of recognition. This moment stirs a reflective irritation in her, as she recounts to Mr. Carter how, just a few years earlier, he was a socially awkward and hopeless figure. Meadows once carried an unrolled umbrella and a brown paper parcel, wore ill-fitting clothes, and approached life with a sense of grim earnestness. He neither smoked nor drank, and his…-
