Mrs. Lancelot: A Comedy of Assumptions is a novel written by Maurice Hewlett and published in 1912. The story revolves around a middle-aged woman named Mrs. Lancelot who is married to a wealthy businessman. Despite her comfortable life, Mrs. Lancelot is bored and unhappy with her mundane existence. One day, she decides to reinvent herself and assumes the identity of a young, carefree woman named Rosamund. She begins to live a double life, going out to parties and having affairs with men, all while keeping her true identity a secret. However, her deception is eventually discovered, and she is forced to confront the consequences of her actions. The novel explores themes of identity, deception, and the consequences of one's actions. Overall, Mrs. Lancelot: A Comedy of Assumptions is a satirical and entertaining novel that provides a commentary on the societal expectations placed on women during the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
