As Lucy begins to fall in love with George, she is forced to confront the rigid expectations of society and the consequences of breaking the rules.Throughout the novel, Lucy struggles to balance her desire for personal fulfillment with her duty to uphold the expectations of her family and society. The story explores themes of love, class, and social norms, and provides a vivid portrait of life in early 20th century England.The Courtesy Dame is a beautifully written and thought-provoking novel that offers a fascinating glimpse into the complexities of social etiquette and the challenges of navigating societal expectations.
