Items related to Life in a Cold Climate: Nancy Mitford The Biography
The novelist Nancy Mitford (1904-1973) was, in the words of her sister Diana Mosley, 'very, very complex'. Drawing on her vast body of letters to family, friends such as Evelyn Waugh, and her great love Gaston Palewski, Laura Thompson's biography brings this fascinating woman vividly to life: one who cherished marriage and family but yearned for writerly solitude; who disliked feminism yet lived a life of emotional and financial independence; and who was quintessentially English yet only blossomed in France.
