This chilling tale of lust, deception and greed, first published anonymously in 1877, allowed 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, A Modern Mephistopheles is a penetrating and powerful study of human evil and its appalling consequences.
