Thus continue the ins and outs of Emma's life. This time with a tennant in the accompanying garrett through whom she forms a correspondence of the Pyramus and Thisbee type.
It's fun to watch Emma's associations grow, and how she continues to outmaneuver Cousin Archibald. More of the Roman makes an appearance, and Emma acquires a pseudo tennant who wanders where he wills.
Wonderful narration of the first person letters.
On to the next installment.
Do you prefer first person or third person for novels?
“I was sitting at my desk reading, with a cup of tea, my windows flung open, when I heard The Tenant enter his garret, just on the other side of the wall from myself.”
THE YEAR IS 1883 and Emma M. Lion has returned to her London neighborhood of St. Crispian’s. But Emma’s plans for a charmed and studious life are sabotaged by her eccentric Cousin Archibald, her formidable Aunt Eugenia, and the slightly odd denizens of St. Crispian’s.
Emma M. Lion offers up her Unselected Journals, however self-incriminating they may be, which comprise a series of volumes. Armed with wit and a sideways amusement, Emma documents the curious realities of her life at Lapis Lazuli House.
