Publisher's Synopsis

""Michael"" is a novel written by E. F. Benson. The story revolves around the life of Michael Comber, a young man who is the heir to a large estate in England. Michael is a charming and charismatic character who is loved by everyone in his town. However, his life takes a turn when he falls in love with a beautiful woman named Fanny. Fanny is the daughter of a wealthy businessman who disapproves of Michael's lifestyle and background. Despite this, Michael and Fanny continue to see each other in secret. The novel explores themes of love, class, and societal expectations. Benson's writing style is known for being witty and engaging, making ""Michael"" a delightful read for fans of classic literature.Though there was nothing visibly graceful about Michael Comber, he apparently had the art of giving gracefully. He had already told his cousin Francis, who sat on the arm of the sofa by his table, that there was no earthly excuse for his having run into debt; but now when the moment came for giving, he wrote the cheque quickly and eagerly, as if thoroughly enjoying it, and passed it over to him with a smile that was extraordinarily pleasant.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
