| Summary | "The Search After Happiness" by Charlotte Brontë is a tale that can be classified as a philosophical narrative or allegorical fiction, likely penned in the early 19th century during the Victorian era. This story revolves around themes of existential inquiry, self-discovery, and the pursuit of happiness, focusing on the character Henry O'Donell and his journey away from his home in search of deeper fulfillment. The plot follows O'Donell as he decides to leave his prosperous and respected life behind due to feelings of discontent and unhappiness. After a quarrel in the royal court, he embarks on a quest accompanied by Alexander Delancy, whom he meets during his travels. Together, they venture through various landscapes, including a mystical forest and a desolate land, where they eventually find solace in a cave. Over the years, they live blissfully until Delancy mysteriously disappears. Heartbroken, O'Donell wishes to reunite with his past life and, after encountering a powerful spirit who grants him a second chance, he returns to his homeland. In the end, he rediscovers joy and companionship as he reunites with Delancy, illustrating that the pursuit of happiness often leads not only outward but also inward.
