Gray Dusk is a novel published in 1919 by Octavus Roy Cohen. The story is set in the early 20th century and follows the life of a young man named Jack Manning, who is a successful businessman. Jack is in love with a woman named Helen, but their relationship is complicated by the fact that she is engaged to another man. As Jack tries to navigate his feelings for Helen, he becomes embroiled in a scandal involving a corrupt politician and a young woman who has been wronged by him. The novel explores themes of love, betrayal, and the corrupting influence of power. It also touches on issues of social class and the struggles of working-class people in a rapidly changing world. Gray Dusk is a gripping and thought-provoking read that offers a glimpse into the social and political landscape of early 20th century America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
