| Summary |
"Valkopukuinen nainen 2" by Wilkie Collins is a novel written in the early 20th century. This work likely continues the intricate exploration of relationships and societal issues, including themes of inheritance and deception, particularly through the character of Fredrik Fairlie, whose narrative seems to highlight his personal struggles amidst larger family dynamics. The opening of the novel introduces Fredrik Fairlie, who is reluctant about his obligation to document troubling family matters, particularly concerning his sick niece and a mysterious letter. Fairlie is exhibiting signs of stress and illness, exacerbated by the pressures exerted by his relatives and their expectations. His discomfort grows with the arrival of Fanny, Lady Glyde's maid, bringing news that compels him to confront the chaos within his family while also dealing with his own frailties. The beginning sets the stage for a narrative filled with tension, secrets, and the complexities of familial duty. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
