Book Overview

The Initials V2: A Story of Modern Life is a novel written by Jemima Montgomery Tautphus and first published in 1892. The book is set in the late 19th century and tells the story of a group of upper-class Londoners and their romantic entanglements. The main character is Lady Adela Lancing, a young woman who is engaged to be married to a wealthy and respectable man named Sir Francis Geraldine. However, Adela is secretly in love with another man, Arthur Arbuthnot, who is also in love with her. The novel explores the themes of love, duty, and social conventions, as Adela struggles to choose between her heart and her obligations to her family and society.
