A rare digestif with a questionable name and dubious provenance, purchased by Sir William Lucas from "under the counter" at one of his favourite London stores.

On a more serious note, I kept places, street names etc. as historically accurate as possible based on old maps and literature. Most shop names in the novel are imagined, though their locations are time-appropriate. Book titles are a mix of real and invented.(less)

Quotes by Mark Brownlow  (?)

“Books are the one luxury I deem a necessity. If my purchases lead us into poverty, then at least we will be well-read paupers.”
Mark Brownlow, Cake and Courtship

“Gemstones glittered as Mrs Darcy twisted outstretched fingers. An oval setting encased a large cut diamond flanked by trefoils, each holding a ruby and two emeralds. Traces of black enamel encircled the gold of the ring itself. It held the attention of the table, like an opera singer at the climax of an aria.

“How fortunate you are, Mrs Darcy,” said Miss de Bourgh. “A lady may be sure of a gentleman’s love when he presents her with such a treasure.”
Mark Brownlow, The Darcy Ring: A Pride and Prejudice Sequel

“Doubt my sanity, my understanding, my intelligence, all, but do not doubt my love.”
Mark Brownlow, A Third Proposal: A Short Story

“Books are the one luxury I deem a necessity. If my purchases lead us into poverty, then at least we will be well-read paupers.”
Mark Brownlow, Cake and Courtship

“If you remember nothing else of what I say, remember this: When humanity ceases to aspire, it begins to decline.”
Josiah Bancroft, Arm of the Sphinx

“The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid.”
Jane Austen, Northanger Abbey

“There are few people whom I really love, and still fewer of whom I think well. The more I see of the world, the more am I dissatisfied with it; and every day confirms my belief of the inconsistency of all human characters, and of the little dependence that can be placed on the appearance of merit or sense.”
Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

“Mind! I don't mean to say that I know, of my own knowledge, what there is particularly dead about a door-nail. I might have been inclined, myself, to regard a coffin-nail as the deadest piece of ironmongery in the trade. But the wisdom of our ancestors is in the simile; and my unhallowed hands shall not disturb it, or the Country's done for. You will therefore permit me to repeat, emphatically, that Marley was as dead as a door-nail.”
Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol
