Queen Lucia; Miss Mapp; Lucia à Londres

Rate this book

Satire de la bourgeoisie et du snobisme anglais au lendemain de la Grande Guerre, le cycle Mapp & Lucia met en scène Lucia, une jolie quadragénaire métamorphosée en tyran culturel et arbitre des élégances du petit village de Riseholme sur lequel elle règne implacablement ; et Elisabeth Mapp qui, de sa demeure du village de Tilling, observe et régit son entourage qui l’admire autant qu’il la jalouse. Un monument d’humour anglais, un ouvrage culte outre-Manche, le cycle Mapp & Lucia inspirera à la fois Evelyn Waugh et Somerset Maugham.
