Chapter
A Slight Mistake
A Slight Mistake begins with a light exchange that immediately sets the tone—Mrs. Hilary prepares for a charitable event with all the seriousness of a general at war, while Mr. Carter offers his support in the form of a rather laughable monetary donation. His contribution, intentionally meager, is less about stinginess and more about his usual blend of detachment and mockery of earnest causes. Mrs. Hilary, determined and mildly exasperated, takes the jest in stride, pressing on about her mission to…-

A Reminiscence
A Reminiscence opens with Mrs. Hilary deep in the serious task of sourcing a suitable governess—one equipped with a strict curriculum, refined manners, and a moral backbone unbending enough to mold young girls into paragons of propriety.

What unfolds is not a debate about marriage or theater, but a slow unraveling of shared memories, flirtations, and unspoken truths.

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…-
