Green slipcase.78pp. 20.7x14.2cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Young Visiters is a famously unusual comic novel written by Daisy Ashford when she was only nine years old. The story follows the social and romantic ambitions of Mr Salteena, an awkward gentleman who hopes to improve his position and win the affection of the young Ethel Monticue. Its charm lies in Ashford's wonderfully innocent understanding of adult society, combined with unconventional spelling and unintended humour. The result is an affectionate and highly entertaining parody of romance, class and social aspiration, made all the more remarkable by the youth of its author.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Folio Vault","offers":[{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":55216363635027,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"Good","offer_id":55421093478739,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/thefoliovault.com\/products\/the-young-visiters-folio-society-104","provider":"Folio Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
