Description
Mapp and Lucia is a humorous novel about two strong-willed women who find themselves at the centre of their small village's social scene. Elizabeth Mapp, with her impeccable manners and refined tastes, reigns supreme over Tilling, but her position is soon challenged by the arrival of Emmeline Lucas, or 'Lucia' to her friends.
Lucia brings a formidable array of skills and interests to the village, including her knowledge of duchesses, Italian, and financial speculation. As Mapp and Lucia engage in a battle for local supremacy, their relationships with the villagers become increasingly complicated.
This witty and engaging novel explores the complexities of female friendships and the social hierarchies of small-town life, offering a charming insight into the lives of two indomitable women.
