Book excerpt: Edward Bulwer Lytton wrote the book "Godolphin. The story's protagonist, Godolphin, is a well-dressed, rich young man who is also a blossoming poet. The story takes place in 18th-century England and revolves on the life of Godolphin. Godolphin is joined in the story as he navigates Georgian England's complicated social and political environment. He encounters Lady Erpingham along the way, a beautiful but unusual lady, and becomes caught up in a series of political and social intrigues. Godolphin's political ambitions and his love for Lady Erpingham clash as the story goes on, finally resulting in a horrifying climax. The work is renowned for its multi-layered, complicated characters and how it addresses issues of social standing, politics, and romantic relationships. Lytton displays his creative prowess throughout the whole book, relying on his background as a politician and poet to paint a vivid picture of 18th-century England. This famous piece of English literature is a superb illustration of Lytton's distinct viewpoint and writing style.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[...]Pelham can pretend, he is also represented as very inferior to him in constitution of character, and he is certainly a more ordinary type of the intellectual trifler. The characters grouped around Godolphin are those with which such a man usually associates his life. They are designed to have a certain grace-a certain harmony with one form or the other of his twofold temperament: -viz., either its conventional elegance of taste, or its constitutional poetry of idea. But all alike are brought under varying operations of similar influences; or whether in Saville, Constance, Fanny, or Lucilla-the picture presented is still the picture of gifts misapplied-of life misunderstood. The Preacher who exclaimed, "Vanity of vanities! all is vanity," perhaps solved his own mournful saying, when he added elsewhere, [...]."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The rich moonlight that now shone through the windows streamed on little that it could invest with poetical attraction.The room was small, though not squalid in its character and appliances.The bed-curtains, of a dull chintz, were drawn back, and showed the form of a man, past middle age, propped by pillows, and bearing on his countenance the marks of approaching death.But what a countenance it still was!The broad, pale, lofty brow; the fine, straight, Grecian nose; the short, curved lip; the full, dimpled chin; the stamp of genius in every line and lineament;--these still defied disease, or rather borrowed from its very ghastliness a more impressive majesty...".Edward George Earle Lytton Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton, PC (25 May 1803 - 18 January 1873) was an English writer and politician. He served as a Whig MP from 1831 to 1841 and a Conservative MP from 1851 to 1866. He was Secretary of State for the Colonies from June 1858 to June 1859, when he selected Richard Clement Moody to be founder of British Columbia. He was offered the Crown of Greece in 1862 after the abdication of King Otto, but declined it. He became Baron Lytton of Knebworth in 1866. His son was the statesman Robert Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Earl of Lytton, who served as Governor-General of India and British Ambassador to France, and wrote poetry under the pseudonym Owen Meredith. Bulwer-Lytton's literary works were highly popular; his novels earned him a fortune. He coined the phrases "the great unwashed," "pursuit of the almighty dollar," "the pen is mightier than the sword," and "dweller on the threshold." Then came a sharp decline in his reputation, so that he is known today for little more than the opening line "It was a dark and stormy night," the first seven words of his novel Paul Clifford (1830). The sardonic Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest attempts to find the "opening sentence of the worst of all possible novels."LifeBulwer-Lytton was born on 25 May 1803 to General William Earle Bulwer of Heydon Hall and Wood Dalling, Norfolk and Elizabeth Barbara Lytton, daughter of Richard Warburton Lytton of Knebworth House, Hertfordshire. He had two older brothers, William Earle Lytton Bulwer (1799-1877) and Henry (1801-1872), later Lord Dalling and Bulwer.When Edward was four, his father died and his mother moved to London. He was a delicate, neurotic child and was discontented at a number of boarding schools. But he was precocious and Mr. Wallington at Baling encouraged him to publish, at the age of fifteen, an immature work, Ishmael and Other Poems.In 1822 he entered Trinity College, Cambridge, where he met John Auldjo, but shortly afterwards moved to Trinity Hall. In 1825 he won the Chancellor's Gold Medal for English verse.In the following year he took his BA degree and printed, for private circulation, a small volume of poems, Weeds and Wild Flowers.He purchased a commission in the army in 1826, but sold it in 1829 without serving.In August 1827, he married Rosina Doyle Wheeler (1802-1882), a famous Irish beauty, but against his mother's wishes, who withdrew his allowance, so that he was forced to work for a living. They had two children, Lady Emily Elizabeth Bulwer-Lytton (1828-1848), and (Edward) Robert Lytton Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Earl of Lytton (1831-1891) who became Governor-General and Viceroy of British India (1876-1880).His writing and political work strained their marriage, while his infidelity embittered Rosina;[10] in 1833 they separated acrimoniously and in 1836 the separation became legal.Three years later, Rosina published Cheveley, or the Man of Honour (1839), a near-libellous fiction bitterly satirising her husband's alleged hypocrisy. In June 1858, when her husband was standing as parliamentary candidate for Hertfordshire, she indignantly denounced him at the hustings.
