Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Glenarvon, Volume 3 (of 3)" by Lady Caroline Lamb is a novel published in 1816. Set during the Irish Rebellion of 1798, this scandalous work features the rakish Lord Glenarvon, who corrupts the innocent young bride Calantha, leading to their mutual ruin. The novel satirized London's elite Whig society with thinly veiled portraits of real figures, including Lamb's ex-lover Lord Byron. Though wildly successful with readers, its melodramatic scenes and unflattering depictions caused outrage among society's leaders, destroying Lamb's reputation forever.
