A VICTORIAN TALE OF FORTUNE AND INHERITANCE
Published in 1841, Night and Morning is a sprawling social novel concerned with inheritance, class, moral responsibility, and the precariousness of fortune. Bulwer-Lytton follows the tangled fortunes of the Beaufort family through disputed legitimacy, poverty, ambition, and the pursuit of a lost inheritance, using melodrama and coincidence to examine the unequal treatment of vice and crime in Victorian society.
