Présentation de l'éditeur
Mayfair than Sir Louis Marigold, Bart, M. P., and Lady Mary Marigold,and whether they are at Marigold Park, Bucks, or at Homburg, or in their spacious residence in Berkeley Square, their lives form one unbroken round of pomp and successful achievement. She was the daughter of an obscure I rish Earl, and when she married her husband was still hard at work building up the business of Marigold Sons. Those were strenuous days, and the profession of money-getting made it necessary for him toindulgehissnobbishnessonlyasahobby. But she, like the good wife she has always been to him, took care of his hobby, as of a stampcollection, and constantly enriched it with specimens of her own acquisition, being a snob of purest ray serene herself. She is the undoubted descendant of A rrahmedear, king of Donegal, in which salubrious county her brother, the present Earl,is steadilydrinking himself to death in the intervals of farming his fifty-acre estate.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the complex and fascinating world of snobbishness through the lives of Sir Louis Marigold and Lady Mary Marigold, a couple who have made a career of social climbing. Their obsession with social status has led them to become experts in all things related to birth, breeding, and the pursuit of aristocratic connections. The book delves into the motivations and psychology of snobs, exploring their insecurities, aspirations, and the lengths they will go to achieve their goals. Through the Marigolds' story, the author provides a satirical commentary on the social hierarchy and the importance society places on superficial attributes. The book also examines the themes of ambition, self-deception, and the pursuit of happiness through external validation. Ultimately, this book offers a thought-provoking exploration of the complexities of human nature and the ways in which our social and cultural values shape our lives.
