Summary: "What's Mine's Mine — Complete" by George MacDonald is a novel written during the late 19th century. The narrative begins with the introduction of the Palmer family, who occupy a well-furnished dining room in a house that reflects their wealthy, middle-class status. The theme of belonging and the contrast between material wealth and inner fulfillment appears to be central as we see various family members interacting in a setting that raises the question of how they came to be there. At the start of the book, we are introduced to a richly appointed dining room where the Palmer family is gathered for breakfast. The opening scene contrasts the mundane interior with a picturesque view of the surrounding landscape, prompting reflections on life, beauty, and the nature of existence. The initial focus is on the two daughters, Christina and Mercy, who exhibit differing perceptions and attitudes towards their situation and the natural world. As they engage in conversation, their ennui leads them to fantasize about the past and romanticized notions associated with land and nobility, thus foreshadowing deeper explorations of identity, class, and personal aspirations throughout the story.
