Old Wine

By Phyllis Bottome

Dramatizing the international sweep of Phyllis Bottome's political ethics, feminism, and activism, Old Wine is as meaningful today as it was prescient at its time of publication in 1924. Old Wine traces the demise of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the impact of modernity through an intricate network of political and sexual relationships among Viennese aristocrats, new women, and Jews, all of whom suffer and survive their conflicts. The combination of personal and political drama and analysis makes this novel as much a stunning political history as it is an aesthetic triumph.
