Aristocrats Zusammenfassung

Aristocrats: Caroline, Emily, Louisa and Sarah Lennox 1740 - 1832 Stella Tillyard

A fascinating insight into 18th century aristocratic life through the lives of the four Lennox sisters, the great grandchildren of Charles II, whose extraordinary lives spanned the period 1740-1832. Passionate, witty and moving, the voices of the Lennox sisters reach us with immediacy and power, drawing the reader into their remarkable lives, and making this one of the most enthralling historical narratives to appear for many years.

Aristocrats Bewertungen

Engrossing -- Karen Robinson * Sunday Times *
A dazzling achievement: an extraordinary story told by a phenomenally gifted writer. Within its gripping narrative lies a wonderfully rich reconstruction of the world of the Hanoverian elite, its virtues and vices wittily and movingly related -- Simon Schama
Aristocrats is a wonderful panorama of a book -- Victoria Glendinning * Literary Review *
Their story is on one level as hard to put down as any of the fashionable French novels that were Caroline's favourite reading. On another it re-explores a century's history seen, so to speak, inside out through the eyes of four remarkable women who started young, lived long, did much, wrote more and have found a scarcely less remarkable biographer in Stella Tillyard -- Hilary Spurling * Daily Telegraph *
Tillyard's moving and often brilliant book is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of aristocracy and enormously entertaining reading for everyone else -- Linda Colley * Observer *
