| Summary | "The Dark Flower" by John Galsworthy is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative unfolds in a rich, lyrical style, focusing on complex emotional themes such as love, desire, and societal constraints. The story centers on Mark Lennan, a young, sensitive student at Oxford, who becomes entangled in a challenging emotional dynamic with Anna Stormer, a married woman. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Mark as he wanders through an Oxford setting, reflecting on his studies and relationships. He carries a tortoise in his pocket, symbolizing his introspective nature, before arriving at his tutor's home where he meets Anna Stormer. The initial interaction reveals a profound undercurrent of attraction and complexity between Mark and Anna, as she grapples with her feelings of nostalgia and longing for the mountains. As their relationship develops, a tension emerges, highlighting the contrast between youthful passion and mature restraint, setting the stage for the novel's exploration of desire and the moral ramifications that accompany it.
