Anne Warner’s Susan Clegg stories were enormously popular in Edwardian America, and entirely deservedly so: Susan herself is a wonderfully unstoppable comic creation — opinionated, utterly well-meaning, and completely unaware of the comic effect she produces at every turn. In this instalment, domestic life gets a great deal more complicated with a man suddenly in the house, and Susan has thoughts.

Short, sharp, and very funny, the Susan Clegg sketches are ideal comic reading: immediate, perfectly observed, and leaving the reader consistently uncertain whether to laugh at Susan or secretly agree with her. Download this free EPUB and let Susan have her say.
