Omnia Vanitas: A Tale Of Society is a novel written by Hurst and Blackett and first published in 1884. The book is set in the high society of Victorian England and follows the story of a young woman named Lady Mary, who is forced into a loveless marriage with a wealthy but cruel man. As Lady Mary tries to navigate her new life, she is met with a host of challenges and obstacles, including the jealousy and cruelty of her husband, the gossip and judgment of society, and her own inner turmoil. Along the way, she meets a cast of colorful characters, including her husband’s mistress, a group of eccentric artists, and a young man who captures her heart.Through Lady Mary’s struggles and triumphs, the novel explores themes of love, marriage, social class, and the role of women in Victorian society. It also highlights the vanity and superficiality of high society, as well as the toll it takes on those who are forced to conform to its rigid rules and expectations.Overall, Omnia Vanitas: A Tale Of Society is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of Victorian England and the complexities of human relationships.In One Volume.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
