Tinsel and Gold is a novel written by Dion Clayton Calthrop, published in 1910. The story is set in London during the Christmas season and follows the lives of two sisters, Hilda and Janet, as they navigate their way through the glittering world of high society. Hilda is a beautiful and ambitious young woman who dreams of marrying into wealth and status, while Janet is more reserved and content with her simple life. As the holiday season approaches, Hilda becomes increasingly desperate to find a wealthy suitor and secure her future. Meanwhile, Janet becomes involved with a young artist named Peter, who is struggling to make a name for himself in the competitive art world. As Hilda's search for a husband becomes more frantic, Janet must choose between following her sister's lead or following her heart.Tinsel and Gold explores themes of love, ambition, and the pursuit of happiness in a world where appearances are everything. Calthrop's vivid descriptions of London's bustling streets and lavish parties bring the city to life, while his characters' struggles and triumphs resonate with readers even a century after the book's initial publication.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
