- Summary:
- "What Will He Do with It? - Volume 03" by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton is a novel likely written during the mid-19th century. The story centers around two main characters, Gentleman Waife and his granddaughter Sophy, as they navigate the struggles of vagrancy and the search for a better life. Their journey is marked by moments of reflection, hardship, and the hope of finding comfort and community, as Waife seeks to build a future for them with the help of a remarkable poodle named Sir Isaac. The opening of the novel introduces us to a somber moment as Waife and Sophy leave the home of a kind benefactor, Mr. Merle. Sophy expresses her sadness over being separated from a newly formed friendship with a young gentleman, reflecting the deep emotional bond between grandfather and granddaughter. As they walk along a tree-lined path, Waife tries to console Sophy with wisdom and reminiscences of his past misfortunes, while revealing their shared reliance on one another to find joy amidst their struggles. This delicate balance of grief and comfort underlines their relationship, and sets the stage for the plot as they arrive at a quaint cottage where their lives become further entwined with Sir Isaac the poodle, ultimately aiming to transform their fortunes.
