Summary: "Twos and Threes" by G. B. Stern is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a young man named Stuart Heron, who is the heir to a diamond merchant family, and his interactions with his relatives and friends, set against a backdrop of philosophical musings. The narrative explores themes of ambition, identity, and the quest for self-definition in a world filled with expectations. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Stuart through a conversation between Stuart and his uncle Baldwin, who are discussing literature and its implications on life. Stuart is revealed as a character caught between the weight of family obligations and his desire for independence from the riches and support his family offers. The opening scenes in the library set a tone of intellectual debate as they touch upon Nietzsche and personal values, contrasting with Stuart's rebellious spirit against familial expectations. The chapter progresses to reveal the dynamics of Stuart's family, depicting a world filled with privilege, ambition, and the pressure to conform, leading to his resolve to carve out a unique path for himself. So far, a central theme of the novel seems to be Stuart’s struggle with his inherited identity and the philosophical implications of his choices. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
