Synopsis
I AM going to try if I can't write something about myself. My life has been rather a strange one. It may not seem particularly useful or respectable; but it has been, in some respects, adventurous; and that may give it claims to be read, even in the most prejudiced circles. I am an example of some of the workings of the social system of this illustrious country on the individual native, during the early part of the present century; and, if I may say so without unbecoming vanity, I should like to quote myself for the edification of my countrymen.

Review
"A neglected gem: one of Collins's most enticing fictions, and one of Hesperus Press's happiest rediscoveries." "Kirkus Reviews"" --Kirkus Reviews
From the Publisher
A delightful tale of thwarted ambition and forbidden love, A Rogue’s Life follows the very mixed fortunes of an endearing young man. Proffering his own take on the tradition of picaresque storytelling – and with many a grain of truth for the twenty-somethings of today – this is Wilkie Collins at his entertaining best.
