| Summary | "Lady Cassandra" by Mrs. George de Horne Vaizey is a novel written during the late 19th century. The story revolves around Cassandra Raynor, a disenchanted noblewoman grappling with the ennui that accompanies her privileged lifestyle. As she navigates the complexities of her marriage to the dutiful yet uninspiring Bernard, the narrative delves into themes of desire, disillusionment, and the search for personal happiness. The opening of "Lady Cassandra" introduces the titular character standing on the terrace of her grand estate, experiencing a profound sense of weariness despite her wealth and status. Reflecting on her discontent, Cassandra contemplates her marriage and the monotony of her daily life, ultimately questioning whether she is genuinely happy or simply conforming to societal expectations. Her internal dialogue reveals her longing for more meaningful connections and experiences, setting the stage for potential upheavals in her life. The chapter establishes the emotional depth of Cassandra’s character and hints at the struggles she may face as she seeks fulfillment beyond her gilded cage.
