Kipps H. G. Wells English
You get a funny, tender look at what sudden money does to an ordinary draper’s assistant, as Kipps blunders through manners, class anxiety, and his feelings for Ann Pornick. Wells keeps the satire affectionate, though the leisurely pace and earnest moral turns may test you.
Riceyman Steps Arnold Bennett English
A quiet, sad little book about Henry Earlforward, a Clerkenwell bookseller so gently, politely miserly that he starves his own marriage, and Elsie, the maid whose stubborn kindness holds the whole grim house together. If you like small domestic tragedies observed closely, this rewards patience.
