Açıklama
The blind bow-boy by Carl Van Vechten is a novel written in the early 20th century. It follows Harold Prewett, a sheltered heir whose estranged father hires a scandal-tinged tutor to initiate him into “life” beyond college. Moving through Jazz Age New York—from salons to sideshows—the story contrasts the allure of a witty bohemian set led by Campaspe Lorillard with the fragile innocence of Alice Blake, promising a sharp, stylish comedy of manners about experience, desire, and self‑invention. The opening of the novel introduces Harold at a first, awkward meeting with his wealthy father, George Prewett, a cloak‑and‑suit magnate who blames college for misfitting him and vows to “unteach” his son by placing him under Paul Moody, a charming reprobate located via an advertisement seeking “good character but no moral sense.” George installs Harold in his own apartment with a worldly valet, Oliver Drains, and unlimited funds, instructing him to live as he pleases for a year.
