The Copley Chronicles

The universe of The Copley Chronicles is as rich and varied as any 19th Century magnum opus but with a sensibility unheard of in the literature of that period. From the mysterious immigrant, Olga, who lands in the household of the wealthy New Yorker, Benjamin Copley, a saga begins that takes the Copleys through forty years of love and death, betrayal and redemption, domestic joys and sexual depravities, suicide and revenge, incest and resurrection. A domestic drama of epic proportions, The Copley Chronicles is a landmark in the exploration of the perversities of coming-of-age.
