Modern mephistopheles

A sophisticated and suspenseful story of Felix Canaris, a 19-year-old poet on the brink of starvation. Enter Jasper Helwyze, an older, mysterious man who offers him literary success in exchange for total sujugation ... This novel presents a tale of lust, deception and greed, first published anonymously in 1877, allowing Alcott the chance to exercise "the lurid style" she believed was her "natural ambition". A novel of psychological complexity that touches on the controversial subjects of sexuality and drug use, this work is a study of human evil and its appalling consequences.
