2022.165.5Description
An episodic tale that involves all classes of English society in the 1820 The Disowned (1828) is apparently Bulwer's 3rd novel, well before he reached the height of his popularity. In it, we already see his liking for the atmospheric night-time scene (he has a fairly memorable one in which the co-protagonists of his story take a night-time stroll, discuss matters of life and death, and one of them, who has been experiencing premonitions of his death all evening, is murdered - in mistake for a prominent politician). -GoodreadsCreate Date
