The Caxtons: A Family Picture — Volume 08 by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton Lytton
"The Caxtons: A Family Picture — Volume 08" by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton Lytton is a Victorian novel first published in 1849. The story follows the scholarly Caxton family through their quiet country life, disrupted when young Pisistratus becomes secretary to a Parliamentary leader and falls hopelessly in love with his employer's daughter. Financial troubles and romantic disappointment shape this tale of family affection, told with gentle humor and light satire. The
novel marked a turning point from Bulwer-Lytton's earlier melodramatic works toward domestic storytelling. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
