"It all began very innocently. Truly."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 novella-length volumes. Armed with wit and a sideways amusement, Emma documents the curious realities of her life at Lapis Lazuli House. The book presents its ideas in a way that feels grounded and relatable. Even abstract concepts are connected to tangible experiences, making them easier to grasp. The book’s thematic elements are woven seamlessly into the narrative, emerging naturally through character experiences. This integration prevents the story from feeling preachy, allowing readers to draw their own conclusions.
