About this title

Review:

"It's like a visit to an English country estate: breezy, beautiful and charming." --"New York Times Book Review"

"All this would be satire if it weren't so much like a diary, and though those who know about such things generally don't tell, Fellowes, a more genial Evelyn Waugh, seems to hide a notebook in his dinner jacket." --"People "(4 stars)

"Fellowes has a high time skewering the foibles of the landed British gentry..." --"Entertainment Weekly"

"Julian Fellowes knows a thing or two about British society and those who dare to infiltrate it....delightful" --"Vogue""

""A guilty pleasure of a novel [that] seems authentic down to the wallpaper and the Wellingtons. Hilarious...sharp, entertaining, and unforgiving." --Anna Quindlen

"It's not only the rich who are different, it's the British upper classes too. This complicated truth, all the more palatable if delivered amusingly, has been successfully tackled by such insiders as P.G. Wodehouse, Evelyn Waugh and Nancy Mitford, and is now resurrected by Julian Fellowes." --"The Miami Herald"
