He is also an excellent athlete and excels in sports such as cricket and rowing. However, despite his popularity and success, The Babe is plagued by self-doubt and a sense of aimlessness.Throughout the novel, The Babe struggles to find his place in the world and to define his identity. He is torn between his desire to conform to societal expectations and his longing for personal fulfillment. Along the way, he falls in love with a young woman named Molly, but their relationship is complicated by their differing social backgrounds.The Babe, B.A. is a coming-of-age story that explores themes of identity, class, and the search for meaning in life.
