The Rise of Silas Lapham
Résumé
Silas Lapham is a self-made businessman who has built his fortune through the paint industry, yet finds it difficult to be accepted in Boston’s tightly knit, aristocratic circles. As the Laphams attempt to improve their social standing, attention turns to opportunities involving their daughters, bringing new relationships into focus. Tom Corey, connected to an old-money family, becomes a key figure in the family’s changing prospects, and a romantic triangle develops from these competing interests. At the same time, the Laphams face mounting financial strain. As decisions must be made under pressure, questions of character and integrity come to the forefront, testing what Silas is willing to protect.
