A Prodigal is a novel written by Mary Wallace Brooks and published in 1907. The book tells the story of a young man named Richard Redfield, who is the son of a wealthy businessman. Despite his privileged upbringing, Richard is restless and dissatisfied with his life. He becomes involved with a group of bohemian artists and intellectuals, and begins to question the values and beliefs of his family and society. As Richard becomes more deeply involved with his new friends, he becomes estranged from his family and his former way of life. He falls in love with a woman named Beatrice, who is also a member of the bohemian group. However, their relationship is complicated by their differing backgrounds and values. Throughout the novel, Richard struggles to reconcile his desire for artistic and intellectual freedom with his sense of duty to his family and his own sense of morality. He must also come to terms with the consequences of his choices, both for himself and for those around him. A Prodigal is a thought-provoking exploration of the tension between tradition and innovation, duty and freedom, and the search for meaning and identity in a rapidly changing world. It is a timeless story that continues to resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
