About this book

A humble draper's assistant named Kipps unexpectedly inherits a fortune and is thrust into the bewildering, snobbish world of the English middle classes, where he blunders through etiquette, courtship, and social climbing in search of happiness. Wells draws on his own youth behind a shop counter to create a warm, funny, and pointed comedy about class, money, and the absurd rules that govern respectability. Kipps is at once hilarious and tender, a lovable everyman adrift in a society obsessed with status. A delightful social comedy with real heart, Kipps skewers Edwardian pretension while celebrating the decency of ordinary people.
