‘Vivian Grey’ is Benjamin Disraeli’s first novel, published by
Henry Colburn in 1826. Originally published anonymously, ostensibly by a so-called ‘man of fashion, ‘ the novel caused a considerable sensation in London society.
Vivian chooses politics as his career and the novel traces his abortive attempt to gain political power through manipulation of an influential but ineffectual member of parliament. He also attempts to organise a party around the Marquess of Carabas, and is ultimately thwarted by his inexperience and naivete in dealing with the political machine. Vivian emerges as a misguided and arrogant young man who is ruthless in his pursuit of power. The catastrophe at the conclusion provides Vivian with a brutal but essential lesson in human behaviour.
