The Temptation of Wealth: Or The Heir by Primogeniture is a novel written by Swedish author Emilie Flygare Carlen in 1846. The story revolves around a young man named Gustaf who is the heir to a wealthy estate. Gustaf is torn between his desire for wealth and his love for a woman named Ebba. However, his father, who is a firm believer in primogeniture, insists that Gustaf marry a wealthy woman to secure the family's financial future.As Gustaf struggles with his inner conflicts, he becomes increasingly tempted by the allure of wealth and power. He begins to see Ebba as a hindrance to his ambitions, and he ultimately decides to marry a wealthy woman named Marianne. However, Gustaf's marriage to Marianne is not a happy one, and he soon realizes that he has made a grave mistake.The novel explores themes such as love, greed, and the corrupting influence of wealth. Carlen's writing style is engaging and descriptive, and she paints a vivid picture of the societal norms and expectations of 19th-century Sweden.
