Acerca de esta escucha
This collection features unabridged recordings of the first three novels in E.F. Benson’s beloved Mapp and Lucia series.
Queen Lucia: 1920s England, Emmeline Lucas – Lucia to her friends – reigns supreme as the social queen of the village of Riseholme. With her large-hearted husband Peppino, and her devoted companion Georgie by her side, her rule is a blissful one. But change is afoot: enter Olga Bracely, the famous opera prima-donna. Will this new celebrity topple the rightful sovereign?
Miss Mapp: In the coastal English village of Tilling, Miss Elizabeth Mapp sits like a watchful bird of prey at the bow window of her garden-room. For her main occupation is observing and guiding the local inhabitants. Between coaxing Major Benjamin Flint into marriage and stopping Isabel Poppit from stealing her recipe for iced red-currant fool, Miss Mapp certainly has her hands full. . .
Lucia in London: Lucia Lucas revels in her position of Queen of Riseholme. However, when her husband Peppino's cantankerous elderly Auntie Amy dies, the couple inherits her London house. Delighted at the prospect of a City second home, Lucia proceeds to establish a luxurious retreat there, and is soon ingratiating herself into London society. Will Lucia reign sovereign in both town and country?
Narrated by Geraldine McEwan and Prunella Scales Scales and Patricia Gallimore, this collection brings to life E.F. Benson’s comic tales of marriage, mishaps and mayhem.

We tend to think of the Middle Ages as a dark, backward, and unchanging time characterized by violence, ignorance, and superstition. By contrast, we believe progress arose from science and technological innovation, and that inventions of recent centuries created the modern world. We couldn't be more wrong.

Henry V reigned over England for only nine years and four months and died at the age of just thirty-five, but he looms over the landscape of the late Middle Ages and beyond. The victor of Agincourt, he is remembered as the acme of kingship, a model to be closely imitated by his successors. William Shakespeare deployed Henry V as a study in youthful folly redirected to sober statesmanship. For one modern medievalist, Henry was, quite simply, “the greatest man who ever ruled England.”

Barbara Jefford is the hilariously outrageous Lucia in this BBC Radio 4 dramatisation of the novel by E.F. Benson. Lucia is the uncrowned queen of 1920s provincial society, the Everest of social climbers and the most delicious of snobs. In the pastoral serenity of the village of Riseholme, Lucia and her unforgettable cronies face up to an Indian guru, spiritualism, and a cultural usurper.

Sharply observant and wickedly funny, E.F. Benson's six Mapp and Lucia novels satirize the upper-middle-class social climbers in 1920s and '30s rural England. Games of bridge and cups of tea fuel hilarious gossip and vindictive plots a-plenty. It is a masterfully sustained spotlight on the minutiae of village life - a clever and ultimately heart-warming series that seems tailor-made for audio. Volume 1 contains the first three books.

Mark Gatiss ( Sherlock, Doctor Who, Game of Thrones) reads chilling tales by the unsung master of the classic ghost story: E. F. Benson. There's nothing sinister about a London bus. Nothing supernatural could occur on a busy train platform. There's nothing terrifying about a little caterpillar. And a telephone, what could be scary about that? Don't be frightened of the dark corners of your room. Don't be alarmed by a sudden inexplicable chill.
