You came to Oxford carrying a school reputation so bright that tutors had already mapped prizes, firsts, and a fellowship onto your future. Warrender, the college expects distinction from you because every sign says you can achieve it with disciplined work. You step into this one-chapter preview with Brunson at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. The cab turned toward the station with the message still unanswered. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
