Glenarvon, Volume 1

By: Caroline Lamb, Lady

A scandalous passion that stunned the Regency rediscover Glenarvon, Lady Caroline Lamb s audacious Gothic romance novel reborn for modern readers. Told with feverish intensity and biting social satire, Glenarvon follows the charismatic but ruinous title hero through a whirl of aristocratic intrigue, scandalous love affairs, and moral collapse. Part historical romance, part portrait of obsession, the novel exposes the Romantic era s glittering salons and dark undercurrents of love and betrayal as it tracks illicit desire, political plotting, and the fragile reputations that bind Britain s elite. A landmark of 19th-century literature and classic British fiction, Glenarvon shocked contemporaries with its thinly veiled portrayals of real-life figures and its daring critique of the aristocracy. Readers will recognize the hallmarks of Gothic romance stormy emotion, eerie atmosphere, and moral ambiguity alongside incisive commentary on the Regency period drama and the costs of scandal. This edition restores Lady Caroline Lamb s voice in full, offering collectors and casual readers alike a vivid entry to a Romantic era novel that still pulses with relevance. Out of print for decades, Glenarvon is now republished by Alpha Editions meticulously restored for today s and future generations. More than a reprint, this volume is a collector s item and cultural treasure: elegantly presented, carefully edited, and primed for readers who crave historical romance, literary classic status, and the intoxicating mix of love and betrayal.
