I was charmed & finally quite delighted by this social comedy; I have a special love for novels that are little more than low-stakes depictions of the messy little foibles of everyday life, & this is a particularly good example. Centered around the formidable title character who quite literally functions as our navigation system to the insular little social bubble of uppercrust Tilling, Elizabeth Mapp could quite easily have been a deeply unpleasant character, but Benson holds so much wry affection for her that we can't help but be quickly won over too. The same can also be said about all of the other characters that become entangled in Miss Mapp's orbit (although I found the men significantly less engaging than the women & their always-simmering battle of wills). "It is no use denying that the Cosmic Consciousness of the ladies of Tilling was aware of a disagreeable anticlimax to so many hopes and fears. It had, of course, hoped for the best, but it had not expected that the best would be quite as bad as this."
