Benson illustrates the absurdities of middle-class pretension, arguing that status, taste, and influence are as much about performance as substance. The series presents a parade of eccentric characters, sharp dialogue, and deliciously petty feuds, instructing readers in the art of genteel warfare and the enduring charm of English village life.
