Gryll Grange
by Thomas Love Peacock
Gregory Grill said, "Although the pedigree is difficult to trace, against Ulysses the lives of other animals came from the ancient and famous Grillus, who maintained his high happiness with human life." Family lineage has now lasted about three thousand years, but the owner of the Grill Grange remained unmarried, without an heir to continue the family. Although he instead adopted his nephew as an heir, he abandoned his numerous suitors. The thing about the novel is how it finally comes to finding a man she loves. (source: Wikipedia)
