Miss Marjoribanks by Margaret Oliphant is a satirical Victorian novel that follows the ambitious and socially savvy Lucilla Marjoribanks, who returns home after school determined to improve her town of Carlingford and establish herself as its social leader. With wit and determination, Lucilla hosts drawing-room gatherings, manages local politics, and navigates potential suitors-all while maintaining control over her domestic world and avoiding marriage until it suits her goals. The novel humorously explores themes of gender roles, class, and social ambition through Lucilla's strategic yet charming manipulations.
