| Summary | "What's Mine's Mine — Volume 2" by George MacDonald is a novel written during the late 19th century. The narrative delves into themes of human struggle, poverty, spirituality, and interpersonal relationships, focusing particularly on the experiences of a woman who faces the trials of life after losing her husband and children. As she grapples with her circumstances, the story introduces characters like Ian and Mercy, who shape the unfolding social dynamics in their interactions with one another and their community. The opening of "What's Mine's Mine — Volume 2" introduces a poignant story told by Ian, recounting the life of a mother who, after the death of her husband, descends into poverty while holding steadfastly to her faith in God. As her children succumb to illness, her resilience is tested, culminating in her eventual death, which brings a vision of her lost children coming to comfort her. This narrative sets a tone of empathy and exploration of deeper moral and spiritual questions, contrasting her struggle with the richer characters surrounding her. The interactions among Ian, Mercy, and the other Highlanders foreshadow a rich tapestry of relationships framed by themes of charity, love, and self-discovery interwoven throughout the volume.
