A novel written in the mid-19th century. The story revolves around the titular character, Roland Cashel, who grapples with the complexities of social interactions among a vibrant group of acquaintances in a grand country house setting. Through themes of friendship, political intrigue, and romantic entanglement, the narrative unfolds in a richly humorous style that captures the spirit of the era. At the start of the volume, we find Roland Cashel returning to his own grand drawing-room, where he is warmly welcomed by an assembly of friends despite his earlier gloom. Jests and lighthearted quips fill the room as the guests debate various forms of governance, showcasing their lively personalities. As he engages with the gathering, Roland proposes a playful election for a female ''Queen,'' and the atmosphere is charged with anticipation when Lady Kilgoff arrives, altering the dynamics of the group. The scene is set for a series of intrigues and playful banter, while hints of deeper relationships and potential conflicts emerge, primarily through Cashel's interactions with Lady Kilgoff and Linton.
