Summary: "A Colonial Reformer, Vol. 2 (of 3)" by Rolf Boldrewood is a novel written in the late 19th century. Set against the backdrop of colonial Australia, the narrative follows the character Ernest Neuchamp as he navigates both social intrigues and personal aspirations within a vibrant yet often critical landscape. The book explores themes of ambition, cultural encounters, and the complexities of life in a young colony. The opening of the second volume dives straight into a lively ball hosted by Count von Schätterheims, where Mr. Neuchamp grapples with mixed feelings about attending an event that he views as superficial. His anticipation is sparked primarily by the presence of Antonia Frankston, to whom he is drawn despite his disdain for the festivities. As he and Antonia navigate the ball's social dynamics, discussions arise concerning relationships and the peculiarities of colonial life. Moments of light-hearted banter intermingle with deeper reflections on ambition, relationships, and the clash between European customs and the burgeoning Australian identity, setting the stage for the unfolding drama in Neuchamp’s journey.
