Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Lucia in London" by E. F. Benson is a comic novel written in 1927. The third book in the Mapp and Lucia series, it follows the pretentious and socially ambitious Emmeline "Lucia" Lucas as she leaves her small town of Riseholme for London. There, she launches an audacious campaign to conquer high society with shameless tactics that both attract followers and expose her provincial roots. This satirical comedy skewers idle 1920s women and their fierce battles for social dominance.
