| Summary | "A Bed of Roses" by Walter Lionel George is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story begins with the departure of a ship from Bombay, introducing a cast of characters that includes two women, Molly and Victoria. As the narrative unfolds, it conveys themes of transition, personal tragedy, and the search for identity amidst life's challenges. The opening of the novel sets a reflective tone as it presents the departure from Bombay and the contrasting emotions of the characters. Victoria Fulton is depicted as a widow navigating her new reality after her husband's demise, haunted by memories of her past and grappling with her current state of boredom and uncertainty. As she boards the steamer to return home, there’s a palpable sense of loss and the need for transformation. Through Victoria's interactions and introspections, readers observe her struggle between the remnants of her previous life in India and the uncertain prospects awaiting her in England, establishing the groundwork for her journey of self-discovery.
