Excerpt from Fanny Lambert: A Novel
He was an orphan blessed with a small competency. His Income, to use his own formula, consisted Of a hundred a year and an uncle. During the first four months or so Of the year he spent the hundred pounds, during the rest Of the year he squandered his uncle that is to say he would have squandered him only for the fact that Mr James Hancock, Of the firm of Hancock Hancock, solicitors, was a person most difficult to negotiate.
Art, however, was looking up. He had sold several pictures lately. The morning mists on the road to success were clearing away, leaving to the view in a prospect distant tremulous and golden the mysterious city Of attainment.
He would have whistled as he worked only that he was smoking.
Through the Open windows came the pulse like sound Of the omnibuses in the King's Road, the sleigh bells of the hansoms, the rattle Of the coster's barrow, and voices.
As he painted, the sounds outside brought before him the vision of the King's Road, Chelsea, where flaming june was also at work with her golden brush and palette Of violet colours.

Excerpt from Fanny Lambert: A Novel
"You may take away the things, Belinda," said Mr Leavesley, lighting his pipe and taking his seat at the easel. "Nobody called this morning, I suppose?"
"Only the Capting, sir," replied Belinda, piling the tray. "He called at seven to borry your umbrella."
"Did you give it him?"
"No, sir, Mr Verneede's got it; you lent it to him the night before last, and he hasn't brought it back."

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a compelling account of the lives of a young woman, Fanny Lambert, and her family caught in the web of an escalating property dispute with their disagreeable cousin, the wealthy Charles Bevan. With charm and pluck, Fanny seeks the help of her artist friend to craft a daring plan to bring an end to the conflict. Their idea is for Fanny to approach Bevanâs solicitor and plead their case directly. The author presents the reader with the ensuing high-stakes confrontation, providing a fascinating insight into social class and gender politics of the Victorian legal system. The story is set against the splendor of Londonâs High Society. The author captures the atmosphere of the time with vivid descriptions of the river, the parks, and the very distinct personalities that occupied this spirited and rapidly changing world. This is an entertaining and sharply observed story of intrigue and romance that sheds light on the struggles faced by women at this time.
