This 1917 novel tells the tale of a handsome, struggling artist who carelessly manipulates women for his own advantage—including Lady Helen Seely, the rich and beautiful aristocrat whom he seduces and marries. The novel is a rewriting of Moore’s first novel, A Modern Lover, which was banned from circulating libraries due to its explicit descriptions of the protagonist’s blatant use of women.
Об авторе
George Augustus Moore (1852-1933) was a pioneering modern Irish writer. He had to fight against censorship early in his career. Despite the powerful forces arrayed against him, Moore succeeded in establishing realism as a legitimate literary mode. His best-known novels include A Mummer’s Wife (1885) and Esther Waters (1894).
