The Relapse: Or True And False Morality is a novel written by an unknown author and published by J. Hatchard Publisher in 1824. The novel is a satirical critique of the hypocrisy and double standards prevalent in English society during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The story follows the exploits of a young man named George, who is torn between his desire for the pleasures of the flesh and his sense of moral duty. Along the way, he encounters a cast of characters who embody various moral virtues and vices, including his own mother, who is a model of piety and virtue, and his mistress, who represents the temptations of the flesh. Through his experiences, George comes to realize the true nature of morality and the dangers of false virtue. The Relapse is a witty and incisive commentary on the moral and social issues of its time, and remains a classic of English literature to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
