Surtees is a lively and humorous novel set among the sporting and fashionable society of Victorian England. The story follows a collection of ambitious, eccentric and often ridiculous characters whose lives revolve around hunting, social position, courtship and appearances. Surtees uses the world of fox hunting as a setting for sharp social comedy, exposing vanity, snobbery and pretension with considerable wit. His colourful characters and energetic descriptions of sporting life make Ask Mamma both an entertaining novel and an affectionate satire of nineteenth-century country society.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Folio Vault","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":55216358490451,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Good","offer_id":55421091053907,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/thefoliovault.com\/products\/ask-mamma-1954-folio-society-68","provider":"Folio Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
