概要

Step into the vibrant world of Round the Block (1864) by John Bell Bouton, a newspaper editor turned travel writer, who masterfully blends comedy and pathos to unveil the dreams and schemes of both ordinary and extraordinary characters on a single New York City block. As the narrative unfolds, a tapestry of mystery, romance, and a gripping murder trial comes to life, revealing how love connections and fortunes can be won or lost amidst invention, speculation, and a healthy dose of flimflam. This richly textured novel, infused with Dickensian flair, offers a captivating glimpse into the bustling habits and social mores of America just before the Civil War. (Introduction by Grant Hurlock)
