Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a riveting exploration of class, social expectations, and personal ambition in the grandeur of the 19th Century American metropolis. It tells the story of two parallel families: one struggling to hold onto its grip on privilege in the face of financial ruin, the other looking to climb into the elite by any means necessary. There is no shortage of moral questions and ethical quandaries as love tries to bloom between two members of these different worlds. The author also delves into the complexities of one man's addiction to opium, and how it chips away at his health and perceptions. Ultimately, this book is a testament to the human capacity for both great love and great weakness, and the ways in which these can intertwine and shape our destinies.
