Castle Rackrent

Castle Rackrent

When a long-time servant of the Rackrent family decides to write about family members whom he has served, the result is a stylishly entertaining exploration of master/servant relationships. Edgeworth's brilliant satire of early-19th-century Anglo-Irish landlords pioneered the regional novel and changed the focus of conflict in Ireland from religion to class.

Excerpted from Tales and Novels by Maria Edgeworth, published by Baldwin & Cradock, London, 1832.
