About this book

A vast, biting panorama of a corrupt age, Trollope's masterpiece centers on the mysterious financier Augustus Melmotte, whose dazzling speculative empire draws in a society obsessed with money, status, and dishonest gain—until the bubble bursts. Ranging across fraudulent finance, cynical marriages, and literary vanity, it is Trollope's darkest and most ambitious novel, a savage indictment of Victorian greed that feels startlingly modern. Rich in character and scathing in its satire, The Way We Live Now exposes a world where everything and everyone is for sale. Sweeping and powerful, it stands as one of the great English novels about money, ambition, and moral decay.
