Description
Wigs on the Green by Nancy Mitford is a hilarious satire of the upper classes. In this early novel, Mitford skewers her family and their beliefs with customary jewelled barbs, but also delivers froth, comedy and heart. The story revolves around Eugenia Malmains, one of England's richest girls, and those around her as they navigate love, loyalty and social status. The result is a farcical tale that has been entertaining readers for nearly seventy-five years. Originally published in 1935, Wigs on the Green offers a witty and engaging portrayal of life among the English upper class during the early 20th century.
