(Leeds, West Yorkshire)
Lucy E. is a writer and a librarian who has been creating her own corner of the British Library for years. Her trade will enable the handwork necessary to conserve a title in that library: Carvalho's Town and Country Valentine Writer, or Lover's Repository. It's a book designed to help the tongue-tied put words to their feelings in a love letter, so its a perfect fit with the love letters that form the heart of The Blind Contessa's New Machine. And the book was published in 1820, so it's something Carolina and Turri might actually have read.
