Lucy And Their Majesties: A Comedy In Wax is a novel written by Benjamin Leopold Farjeon and first published in 1904. The story is set in London and revolves around the character of Lucy, a young girl who works in a waxwork museum. Lucy is a talented artist and creates lifelike wax figures of historical figures and celebrities.One day, Lucy is approached by a group of people claiming to be the King and Queen of a small European country. They are impressed by Lucy’s skills and ask her to create wax figures of themselves to take back to their country. Lucy agrees and begins work on the project.As Lucy works on the wax figures, she becomes increasingly involved in the lives of the King and Queen. She learns about their country, their customs, and their struggles to maintain their power in the face of political turmoil. Lucy also becomes romantically involved with the King’s nephew, who is working as a diplomat in London.The novel is a light-hearted comedy that satirizes the politics and social customs of early 20th century Europe. It also explores themes of art, love, and the importance of tradition. Overall, Lucy And Their Majesties: A Comedy In Wax is an entertaining and engaging read that will appeal to fans of historical fiction and romantic comedies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
