Published in 1800 "Castle Rackrent" is regarded as the first family saga and first regional novel in English. It chronicles the lives of four generations of 18th-century Irish landlords and how their negligent behaviour towards life and money takes them to the edge of bankruptcy and ruin. A stimulating satire!
