Ten Thousand A-Year. Volume 2.
1842
The sequel to one of Victorian England's most notorious novels picks up the wreckage of a legal earthquake. Tittlebat Titmouse, a worthless dandy who stumbled into an estate through a web of legal trickery, now holds the keys to Yatton while the rightful owner, Mr. Aubrey, packs his belongings with quiet dignity. The newly rich Titmouse embarks on a reckless spending spree, intoxicated by his sudden elevation, while the dispossessed Aubreys navigate their fall with a heaviness that only deepens the injustice. Warren, drawing on his experience as a barrister, constructs a darkly comic portrait of a society where wealth warps identity, where lawyers manipulate the vulnerable, and where a fool's accidental fortune becomes a tragedy for decent people. This is social satire with teeth: sharp, entertaining, and uncomfortably relevant... Volume 2 chronicles the consequences when wealth without merit collides with worthiness without wealth.
