Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"Married Money" is a witty social satire that explores the humorous and often complicated intersection of romance and high-stakes finance during the late 1920s. Set against the contrasting backdrops of staid, traditional Boston society and the flashy, fast-paced world of New York's Park Avenue, the story follows the escapades of a couple navigating the pressures of inherited wealth and social expectations. Harford Powel, Jr. expertly captures the spirit of the Jazz Age, lampooning the eccentricities of the upper class with a sharp eye for detail and a lighthearted touch.The narrative delves into the challenges of maintaining status while pursuing personal happiness, offering a clever look at how wealth influences character and relationships. As a comedy of manners, "Married Money" reflects the cultural anxieties and triumphs of an era defined by economic prosperity and shifting social boundaries. Readers interested in historical fiction, social satire, and the glamorous complexities of early 20th-century American life will find this work both entertaining and insightful.
