E. M. Delafield, a pen name for Edmée Elizabeth Monica Dashwood, née de la Pasture (1890–1943), was a prolific English author best known for her largely autobiographical 'Diary of a Provincial Lady,' which remains a cherished work in the British comic literary canon. Delafield's writing career began post-World War I, and she quickly gained a reputation for her incisive wit and insightful social commentary. A member of the prolific de la Pasture literary family, her novels often explore themes of domesticity, the plight of women in society, and the class differences of the early 20th century through a sharp yet empathetic lens. Delafield's works, including her popular 'Provincial Lady' series, are celebrated for their ability to blend humor with a critique of contemporary mores, and a style that is both engaging and accessible. While the 'E. M. Delafield Premium Collection: 6 Novels in One Volume' presents a significant portion of her literary contributions, Delafield's expansive oeuvre includes over 30 novels, in addition to plays, short stories, and contributions to periodicals. Her legacy endures in the delightful and enduring portraits of English life she has bequeathed to the world of letters.
