Summary: "The Daughters of a Genius" by Mrs. George de Horne Vaizey is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the Charrington family, who grapple with the aftermath of the father's death, exploring themes of family responsibility, ambition, and the aspirations of a group of sisters. The novel primarily follows Philippa Charrington, who, alongside her siblings, embarks on a journey to London in search of success and their identities as they seek to overcome the challenges left behind. At the start of the book, we are introduced to the Charrington family as they react to the news of the father’s passing. The mother, Mrs. Loftus, expresses a dismissive indifference to the deceased's struggles and a concern for their own social standing. Meanwhile, Mr. Loftus, showcasing a more humane approach, wishes to assist their grieving cousins. The narrative then shifts focus to the Charrington sisters, particularly Philippa, who eagerly plans their move to London with her siblings in an effort to seek better opportunities. The opening chapters set the stage for their future adventures and the trials they are likely to face in the bustling city as they navigate their aspirations and family dynamics.
