Convinta che qualcuno stia cercando di ucciderla, la ricca Jane Wetherby chiede a Hamish Macbeth di trascorrere il Natale con lei e con un gruppo di amici presso la sua clinica termale, che sorge sull'isola di Eileencraig. Tormentato da un brutto raffreddore e senza progetti per il periodo natalizio, Hamish accetta, anche se pensa che Jane sia soltanto una donna po' strampalata. Sull'isola, però, l'atmosfera è assai cupa: gli abitanti sono scontrosi e quasi aggressivi e gli altri ospiti sono assai gelidi nei suoi confronti.

Dive into the fascinating world of snobs through the lens of history, as articulated by the brilliant W. M. Thackeray. In this eloquent exploration, Thackeray reveals his destined purpose to examine the snobbery that permeates all social classes. He argues that snobs, much like objects of natural science, deserve our study and appreciation as part of the Beautiful (with a capital B). Through engaging anecdotes, including the memorable Colonel Snobley, this work invites readers to reflect on the nuances of social pretension and the human experience.

We're broke. We like cars. And we're snobs about it. Three gents talk everything automotive, from muscle, to Euro, to JDM, to electric. Car stories, technology, Driver's Etiquette, modifications, servicing, history, you name it. Plus a fair bit of pop culture/off topic tangents. But in the end, if it has four wheels - that's our wheelhouse. We are... Bruce - The wildcard. Adam - Audis. Aaron - The not-a-car-guy guy.

Qual è davvero il significato della parola snob, che viene introdotta e illustrata da Thackeray nel 1846? Lui stesso sostiene che il significato non è preciso, ma che di fatto gli snobs sono dappertutto, e sono il veleno della “terra della libertà”, l’Inghilterra.Il “Punch”, giornale satirico dell’epoca, pubblicò 17 articoli di Thackeray sul tema, e la loro raccolta formò poi questo libro divertente, acuto, e appassionato.

Il diario della signorina Snob rappresenta la quintessenza della comicità di Franca Valeri: i tic, le manie, le ossessioni (anche linguistiche) dell'Italia negli anni del miracolo economico sono raffigurati con una acutezza e una precisione assolutamente inesorabili. Ciò che però è assolutamente sorprendente è che, nell'Italia di allora, è prefigurata molta dell'Italia di oggi e la "signorina Snob" sembra tolta dalle pagine di certi quotidiani odierni.
