With its original publication in 1882, the novel A Modern Instance created a scandal, as it was one of the first American novels ever to depict divorce as a viable -- and sometimes even logical -- possibility. The marriage between Marcia and Bartley Hubbard is slowly torn apart as Bartley is gradually consumed by greed.
