The Gilded Age: Unbuttoned: A Book Parody of The Gilded Age Show

Decadent. Scandalous. Utterly Unbuttoned. Welcome to The Gilded Age Unbuttoned — a wickedly funny parody of New York’s high-society circus, where corsets are tight, morals are loose, and every scandal shines brighter than the chandeliers. In this laugh-out-loud historical fiction satire, the wealthy elite of 1890s Manhattan will do anything to climb the social ladder — even if it means tripping each other on the way up. Meet the Van Whines, the Gristles, and the Brokes — families dripping in diamonds, desperation, and delusion. Behind every grand ballroom door lies a secret, a scheme, or someone’s underwear. At the center of it all is Mrs. Agatha Van Whine, the queen of gossip and manipulation, whose soirées could make or break a fortune. But when new money moves in next door — and old scandals resurface — the gilded world of manners and money begins to crack wide open. Think The Gilded Age meets Bridgerton, but with sharper claws, bigger bustles, and absolutely no shame. Perfect for fans of: Historical comedy and social satire Romantic period parodies with witty heroines Gilded Age novels filled with scandal, wealth, and power Humorous historical fiction that skewers the elite If you love historical drama but wish someone would finally make it funny — this is the book that will make you laugh, gasp, and clutch your pearls (preferably real ones). The Gilded Age Unbuttoned — where the rich are never dignified… only ridiculous.
