Missing by Maria Edgeworth is a classic English romantic comedy that tells the story of an aristocratic family on the verge of decline. The protagonist, Lord Kolam, is an absentee lord of his own land who has given his heart to the politics and entertainment of London. Lord Collam's clumsy steward, Sir Turnbull, only adds to the family's problems and has a soft spot for the young Lord's mistress. Will the family be able to find happiness and destiny in these difficult circumstances? "Absent" is a bright example of romantic literature, which combines deep moral reflections and light humor.
