Omschrijving

Gold And Dross is a novel written by Edward Garrett and published in 1878. The story is set in the mid-1800s in England and revolves around the lives of two families - the wealthy and influential Deverels and the struggling and working-class Baxters. The novel explores themes of love, betrayal, social class, and the pursuit of wealth. The Deverel family is shown to be consumed by their desire for money and status, while the Baxters struggle to make ends meet and provide for their family.The central character of the novel is a young woman named Edith Deverel, who falls in love with a poor but ambitious young man named Frank Baxter. Their love is tested by the class divide between their families and the disapproval of Edith's father. As the story unfolds, the characters are forced to confront their own values and priorities, and the consequences of their actions. The novel ultimately offers a critique of the obsession with wealth and status, and the toll it takes on individuals and society as a whole.Gold And Dross is a well-crafted and engaging novel that provides a fascinating glimpse into the social and economic realities of Victorian England. It is a timeless story that continues to resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
