- Kort biografi
- Nancy Mitford came from an aristocratic background, which she enjoyed satirizing (along with snobs and social climbers). Many of her works were witty and worldly observations of English and French society and manners. She began writing fiction and moved on to biography and history. She was one of the six Mitford sisters, whose lives and activities fascinated the public.

Sadly I have several other novels from her here in my tbr, and now am very reluctant to even consider opening them.
1 star. would give this a negative rating if possible. A real shame as the topic is interesting.… (mere)
