| Summary | "Mr. Jervis, Vol. 2 (of 3)" by B. M. Croker is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the characters Honor Gordon and Mark Jervis, exploring themes of social intrigue, personal development, and the dynamics of relationships within a colonial setting. The narrative appears to delve into the lives of expatriates in India, their societal interactions, and the inherent tensions and comedies that arise within their social circles. The opening of this volume sets the stage within a lively social environment, where Honor prepares to make her debut in high society alongside her proud aunt, Mrs. Brande. As they arrive at the club in Shirani, various characters are introduced, each contributing to the unfolding drama. Honor encounters a mixed reception, battling the condescension of others like Mrs. Langrishe, as well as awkward interactions with Lalla Paske and Captain Waring, who both navigate the complexities of colonial relationships. The chapter effectively establishes the tone of social competition and personal aspirations, hinting at the challenges and potential romances that will develop as the story progresses.
