Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the vicious and reckless world of scandalous gossip in 18th-century England, tearing the masks off polite British society and its malicious obsessions. The author's astute observations are painted onto a backdrop of simmering rivalry, broken vows, and a complex love triangle between Lady Teazle, Sir Peter Teazle, and the charming but scandalous Joseph Surface. As the story unfolds, the reader is challenged to examine the very nature of truth and reputation, and how easily they can be distorted when filtered through the gossiping elite.
