Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This family drama delves into the lives of the De Dribys, a wealthy aristocratic family with a troubled past and questionable present. A long line of disreputable and violent ancestors weighs heavily on the current generation, whose moral compass seems erratically set. The author examines the themes of self-interest, morality, and the complex relationships that love creates within a family. The text reveals the historical context of the family and their role in English society, while astutely presenting the psychological underpinnings of each character. Family dynamics are put under a microscope, revealing motives and actions usually hidden from the outside world. The De Dribys, despite their wealth and reputation, are seen as fragile, flawed human beings. This book provides a thought-provoking multi-generational portrait of a fascinating family. It will keep readers absorbed to the very end as they explore the complexities of how we shape our destiny and the ways in which we can escape - or repeat - our family's history.
