درباره این ای-کتاب
E. M. Delafield's 'The Provincial Lady - Complete Collection' is a classic work of British fiction that offers a satirical and humor-filled glimpse into the life of a fictional upper-middle-class woman residing in the English countryside. Written in a diary format, the book provides a witty commentary on the day-to-day challenges and social interactions faced by the provincial lady, showcasing Delafield's sharp observational skills and knack for comedic timing. Set in the early 20th century, the novel captures the essence of interwar Britain and explores themes of class, gender, and domesticity. Delafield's unique literary style blends humor with insightful social commentary, making 'The Provincial Lady' a timeless and engaging read for fans of British literature. As a pioneering female writer of her time, Delafield's work sheds light on the experiences of women in a patriarchal society, offering a refreshing perspective on the struggles and triumphs of the everyday woman. I highly recommend 'The Provincial Lady - Complete Collection' to readers interested in exploring the nuances of English social satire and the evolving role of women in literature.
درباره نویسنده
E. M. Delafield, born Edmée Elizabeth Monica Dashwood, née de la Pasture on June 9, 1890, was an English author renowned for her wittily satirical portrayal of English middle-class life. Descended from a literary family, her mother, Mrs. Henry de la Pasture, was also a well-known novelist. Delafield's most acclaimed work is undoubtedly 'The Provincial Lady' series, which is a keenly observant set of diaries, chronicling the daily life of an upper-middle-class Englishwoman in the 1930s. These diaries, commencing with 'Diary of a Provincial Lady' published in 1930, offer a blend of humor and sobering commentary on the female experience of the era with an unpretentious and candid style that has endeared Delafield to readers across generations. The character's endeavours and ordeals with domesticity, social engagements, and the quest for personal identity amidst societal expectations, have led the series to be considered an important precursor to the 'chick-lit' genre. 'The Provincial Lady - Complete Collection' serves as a testament to the timelessness and relevance of her work. Delafield's contribution to English literature extends over two dozen books, and while less known, each offers a nuanced examination of women's lives, marked by her signature irony and insightful social satire. Her legacy endures within the canon of early 20th-century women's literature.
