Excerpt from Privilege: A Novel of the TransitionIn conclusion, let me state categorically that privi lege is not a tract for the times. It teaches no lesson, urges no political creed, presents no real people in guise of characters of fiction. It is merely a story, born of the strange allurement of passing greatness, which sets an imaginary love drama against the tapestry of our turbulent and changing England. The characters are at once of their own age and of any age.~ T heir trousers and their petticoats, their tobacco and their slang are of the twentieth century, but their temptations, and their longings are those of men and women any time this thousand years.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
