The Sizar

By A. E. Arnold

In early 19th century Cambridge, a brilliant but impoverished scholar must earn high honours to secure his future. As a sizar - a lowly student working his way through university - the odds are stacked against him. His path is clear: study hard, succeed, and escape the confines of his humble birth. But a chance encounter with a young woman in desperate need awakens his passion. Helping her could cost him everything. The impulses of his rational mind conflict with those of his heart. In a world of rigid class structures where opportunity is constrained by lack of wealth and social rank, how will he choose between ambition and duty, self-sacrifice and love?
