Summary

"Modern Literature: A Novel, Volume 2" by Robert Bisset is a book set in early 19th century Brighton, where it gives readers a peek into the social lives of the Hamilton family and other people in the area. The story is funny, but it also looks closely at society during that time. Brighton is shown as a fun place to visit because of its beaches and fancy get-togethers. Characters meet and deal with people from different social classes, like the comical Mr. Scribble, whose writing dreams create silly situations. The author uses these characters to point out weird habits and question the normal ways people act, while also making the readers laugh.
