The Weavers: a tale of England and Egypt of fifty years ago - Complete

** "The Weavers: a tale of England and Egypt of fifty years ago - Complete" by Gilbert Parker is a story focused on David Claridge, a young Quaker man working his way through life, family, and the expectations put on him. The story begins in the peaceful area of Hamley, featuring important buildings like the Quaker Meeting-house, where David faces many problems and is expected to live up to certain standards. His trial before the leaders shows his unwillingness to follow the strict rules of his community. We meet key figures such as Faith, David's sister, and Luke Claridge, his grandfather, all within the close-knit Quaker community—each has a role in David's destiny after youthful mistakes. As David deals with the Elders' disapproval, the story looks at love, finding your place in the world, and the fight between what you want and what your community expects. This sets the scene for David's trip to Egypt, which then explores morality, fairness, and his search for who he really is. **
