Lady Lucie Duff Gordon

    Lucie, Lady Duff-Gordon, était une écrivaine anglaise dont la correspondance d'Égypte et du Cap offre un aperçu fascinant de sa vie et de son époque. Ses lettres sont célébrées pour leurs observations sur la culture, la religion et les coutumes égyptiennes, transmises avec humour et histoires personnelles glanées auprès de son entourage. Bien qu'elle ait souvent été considérée comme progressiste et tolérante, ses écrits reflètent également les perspectives de l'époque. Son style se caractérise par une observation aiguë et un récit subjectif qui transporte le lecteur dans son univers.
