""It Happened Yesterday"" is a novel written by Frederick Marshall and first published in 1892. The story follows the life of the protagonist, Richard Larchester, as he navigates the challenges of love, loss, and societal expectations in late 19th-century England. The novel begins with Richard's childhood and the death of his mother, which leads to his estrangement from his father. As he grows older, Richard falls in love with a woman named Evelyn, but their relationship is complicated by her engagement to another man. Richard must also contend with the expectations of society and the pressure to conform to its norms, which threaten to stifle his individuality and independence. The novel is a poignant exploration of the human condition and the struggle to find meaning and purpose in a world that can be both beautiful and cruel. Through Richard's journey, Marshall offers a powerful commentary on the complexities of life and the importance of staying true to oneself in the face of adversity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
