A Long Duel: A Serious Comedy is a novel written by Lucy Lane Clifford and published in 1901. The book is a satirical take on the Victorian era, exploring themes of gender relations, class struggle, and the limitations of societal conventions. The story follows the lives of two young women, Gertrude and Hester, who are caught in a long-standing feud between their families. Despite their initial animosity, the two women develop a deep friendship and work together to challenge the rigid social norms that govern their lives. Along the way, they encounter a cast of eccentric characters, including a self-righteous clergyman, a scheming lawyer, and a group of suffragettes. Through their experiences, Gertrude and Hester learn to navigate the complexities of Victorian society and ultimately find a path to personal fulfillment and happiness. A Long Duel: A Serious Comedy is a witty and insightful commentary on the social mores of its time and remains a classic of Victorian literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
