The Semi-Detached House (1859)
Jane Austen fans will adore Emily Eden's comic novels. As The Semi-Detached House begins, beautiful newlywed Lady Blanche Chester, now pregnant,, is moving to a suburban home while her husband is away. She finds intrigue and annoyance as she encounters her new friends and villagers.The Semi-Attached Couple (1860)
Another witty novel in the style of Jane Austen, although the books are set after the couples are married rather than before. In this book, Emily Eden skewers the social climbing of young married couple, including one woman who is determined to learn everyone’s secret.
