Synopsis "What Will he do With it? Volume 12"

What Will He Do with It? Volume 12 explores the tension between social duty and personal desires, focusing on themes of love, honor, and the burden of family legacy. At the heart of the narrative is the conflict between societal expectations-such as preserving one's social standing and fulfilling familial obligations-and the individual's quest for happiness and emotional connection. The story delves into the emotional turmoil caused by past decisions, particularly concerning issues of lineage and honor, and how these shape the characters' relationships and future choices. A central theme is the clash between duty and personal desires, as one character grapples with the refusal to marry a young woman whose background is considered unsuitable for his noble lineage. This decision leads to turmoil and affects those around him, highlighting the pressures of family ties and social status. Philosophical reflections on good and evil add depth to the narrative, as characters struggle with their internal conflicts and the consequences of their actions. Ultimately, the novel explores how love, societal expectations, and personal integrity intersect, driving the characters toward difficult decisions that reveal the complexities of honor, identity, and legacy.

Edward Bulwer-Lytton (London, 1803 – Torquay, 1873) was a prolific novelist, playwright, and British politician, prominent in the Victorian period. He cultivated various literary genres, including historical novels, Gothic romance, and science fiction. Among his most recognized works is The Last Days of Pompeii (1834), a historical novel set in the ancient Roman city before its destruction by the eruption of Vesuvius. Other notable works include Zanoni (1842), The Haunted and the Haunters (1859), and The Coming Race (1871), also known as Vril, the Power of the Coming Race.

Bulwer-Lytton is remembered for coining famous phrases such as "The pen is mightier than the sword" and for the famous opening "It was a dark and stormy night" in his novel Paul Clifford (1830). His influence endures in literature and popular culture, and his legacy has been the subject of study and revaluation in contemporary literary criticism.
