Lorimer Littlegood: A Young Man Who Wished To See Society, And Saw It Accordingly is a novel written by Alfred Whaley Cole and published in 1858. The story follows the titular character, Lorimer Littlegood, a young man from a humble background who dreams of experiencing high society.Lorimer begins his journey by attending a prestigious university, where he meets and befriends wealthy and influential individuals. He soon becomes enamored with the lifestyles of the upper class and begins to pursue his own ambitions of wealth and status.Throughout the novel, Lorimer navigates the complex social hierarchy of Victorian England, encountering both success and setbacks in his quest for acceptance among the elite. Along the way, he grapples with issues of morality and identity, ultimately learning valuable lessons about the true nature of society and the importance of staying true to oneself.Cole's novel offers a vivid portrayal of life in nineteenth-century England, with detailed descriptions of the era's fashion, architecture, and cultural norms. It also provides a thought-provoking commentary on the social and economic inequalities of the time, as seen through the eyes of a young man striving to overcome them.Overall, Lorimer Littlegood: A Young Man Who Wished To See Society, And Saw It Accordingly is a compelling work of historical fiction that offers both entertainment and insight into the complexities of Victorian society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
