A Modern Prodigal is a novel written by Julia McNair Wright and originally published in 1892. The story follows the life of a young man named Robert Langston, who grows up in a wealthy family but becomes dissatisfied with his privileged life and decides to leave home. He travels to New York City where he falls in with a group of bohemian artists and writers, and becomes involved in their unconventional lifestyle. Langston's experiences in New York lead him down a path of self-discovery and personal growth, as he grapples with questions of identity, morality, and purpose. Along the way, he meets a variety of colorful characters, including a struggling actress, a wealthy socialite, and a wise old philosopher. As Langston navigates the ups and downs of his new life, he must confront his own shortcomings and learn to appreciate the value of hard work, responsibility, and family. Ultimately, he must decide whether to return to his old life or forge a new path for himself. A Modern Prodigal is a thought-provoking novel that explores themes of individualism, morality, and the search for meaning in life. It offers a window into the social and cultural landscape of late 19th century America, and is a timeless tale of personal growth and redemption.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
