| Summary | "Married or Single?" by B. M. Croker is a serialized novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows Madeline West, a young heiress newly introduced to the lavish and superficial society of London, her adventures in love, and the complexities of navigating relationships that cross class boundaries. Amidst the societal pressures and personal dilemmas, Madeline grapples with her loyalty to her husband Laurence Wynne and her father's ambitions for her future, hinting at a deep struggle between love and wealth. At the start of Volume II, the narrative unfolds with Lady Rachel, the sister of Lord Anthony, taking Madeline under her wing to prepare her for high society life. This opening introduces the readers to the dynamics of social climbing through fashion and influence, as Madeline is transformed from a rustic girl into a polished socialite. However, as she adapts to her new luxurious life, the correspondence with her husband reveals the tension in their relationship, with Laurence feeling increasingly neglected and yearning for Madeline to reveal their marriage to her father. This setup draws a contrast between the opulence Madeline now enjoys and the love and sacrifice represented by her commitment to Laurence, setting the stage for conflict as the story progresses.
