    There has never been a city that would be so inimitable. Most trains, too, completely ignore its existence and pass through it on the way to more useful stops. The story was supposed to strengthen many people during the First World War. The book is full of sentimentalism, but it describes well the different scenes of everyday life.

Delightfully witty and shamelessly entertaining, this is a fitting finale...

    E. F. Benson’s subject is always the petty concerns of petty people, but his talent is to make those concerns nearly as important to us as they are to his characters. For us, what happens to Benson’s people is also much funnier than it is to them. This is another of Benson’s social comedies with women battling it out for social supremacy in the village. „Mrs. Ames”, first published in 1912, has been...

    The story is set around the Wentworth mention, a small boarding house in Bolton Spa and its owners and lodgers. They are quite unlikable, mainly upper-middle-class English people who came to the Spa to cure their body illnesses, but also to fill the time and escape boredom despite having no passions, interests and work. A delightful book for anybody familiar with Benson’s work, full of all the usual...

So begins a battle of one-upmanship, peppered with queenly airs, ghastly tea parties, and unnerving bridge evenings as the two combatants attempt to out-do each other to win social supremacy. The pompous...

    A mixture of romance and paranormal. The story of a child who belongs to the upper class. The main character, Archie, saw something strange in women. They wore skirts that might have hidden some kind of abnormality that would be scary to contemplate. Men were a true example of courage.

    This is another work of art from Benson. The novel describes many events in England: the First World War, the mentality of that time, the life of the British and visitors there. The first half of the book describes reflections on war. The denouement we can see more sentimental.

He faced the criminal world. He has a choice: to betray his friend or not.

    This early work is a novel by Edward Frederick Benson. The author focuses on an unusual landscape. Sometimes it refuses to reality and we can see really something fantastic. In this story, only well-provided people will be able to survive in the conditions in which the author put them. And what about those who are just „trying to stand up”? Many questions, but as always few answers.

On the one hand, there is a danger of gaining popularity too easily, and on the other, the discouraging effect of a lack of audience. Mrs Greenock is in danger.

    This is a story about redemption, when money is used as a thematic resonance. He combines the wits of the Dodo books with a rather strong ethical message about materialism. This is a high society satire, and then it becomes something much deeper and richer. This book is read in one breath.
