Description - The Delicious Vice by Young E Allison
A sharp-toned mirror of an era, The Delicious Vice pulls you into a world where aspiration collides with restraint and every smile masks a motive. A tantalising dip into public life, private longing, and the rigid codes of a gilded age. This public domain novel-an american fiction classic-uses period social satire to explore vice and morality with a clear eye and a generous heart. Its exploration of indulgence, consequence, and the thin line between public esteem and private ruin sits within a timeless literary realism lineage, offering a compelling blend of character study and social critique. The narrative gathers momentum from a network of high society, where reputations are currency and scandal travels faster than propriety. Alpha Editions is honoured to reintroduce this work to today's readers and to future generations. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it has been restored with care to preserve voice, texture, and atmosphere for both casual readers and vintage book lovers. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure - The Delicious Vice invites adult historical fiction readers to examine early twentieth century america through the lens of comparative ethics fiction and the human cost of glamour. A worthy addition to any library that treasures enduring public domain literature and the roots of modern literary realism.
