About this listen

Lucia is back—and she's more formidable than ever. In this wickedly funny fifth instalment of E.F. Benson's beloved Mapp and Lucia series, the indomitable Mrs. Emmeline Lucas sets her sights on the quaint village of Tilling. With impeccable manners and a razor-sharp sense of strategy, she schemes her way to the top of the social ladder, charming and outmaneuvering her rivals at every turn.

Packed with wit, satire, and irresistible characters, Lucia's Progress is a delightful comedy of manners and manipulation—a brilliantly observed portrait of English village life where afternoon tea can be a battleground and status is everything.

E.F. Benson (1867 – 1940) was an English novelist, historian and short story writer. A precocious writer, he published his first book while he was at university. He is best known for the successful novel, Dodo (1893), and his collection of satirical and evocative ghost stories.
