    The Balloon Hoax was first published in The Sun newspaper in New York in 1844. Originally presented as a true story, it detailed European Monck Mason's trip across the Atlantic Ocean in only three days in a hot air balloon.The story turned out to be a hoax and the paper published a retraction two days later (rumoured to also have been written by Poe himself) admitting the deception.The story ignited a fever of excitement in New York: Poe himself claimed that the Sun building was "besieged" by people wanting copies of the newspaper. "I never witnessed more intense excitement to get possession of a newspaper," he wrote.The furore around the story is a testimony to Poe's ability to build up a narrative with such plausible details, that it appears almost inconceivable that it should not be the truth.

    Set in the corrupt and morally bankrupt world of Victorian London, "The Way We Live Now" is a scathing satire of the greed, ambition, and societal vices of the era. The novel weaves together multiple plotlines, revolving around the unscrupulous financier Augustus Melmotte and a cast of ambitious characters seeking financial gain or advantageous marriages. Trollope's incisive portrayal of the financial world, political maneuverings, and social machinations reveals the darker side of Victorian society. With its astute critique and vivid characterizations, "The Way We Live Now" remains a compelling and relevant commentary on the pursuit of wealth and status.
