""Manders: A Tale of Paris"" is a novel written by Elwyn Alfred Barron and published in 1899. The story is set in Paris and follows the life of a young Englishman named Manders. Manders moves to Paris with his mother and sister after the death of his father. He becomes enamored with the city and its culture, but also becomes involved with a group of bohemian artists and writers who lead him down a dangerous path of excess and debauchery. Manders struggles to balance his love for Paris and his desire to fit in with this group, while also trying to maintain his own morals and values. The novel explores themes of identity, temptation, and the dangers of succumbing to peer pressure. It is a vivid portrayal of Paris in the late 19th century and the cultural and social movements that were taking place at the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
