Love-Letters Between a Nobleman and His Sister by Aphra Behn

"Love-Letters Between a Nobleman and His Sister" by Aphra Behn is a three-volume novel published between 1684-1687. This pioneering epistolary work follows the scandalous affair between Philander and his sister-in-law Silvia as they flee their families in disgrace. Loosely based on a real political scandal involving the Monmouth Rebellion, the novel traces their relationship through passionate letters, betrayals, and increasingly complex romantic entanglements across Europe. As their love deteriorates, both become enmeshed in schemes involving disguises, rival suitors, and political intrigue. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
