Biografier

Filled with sparkling anecdotes and tales of living life to the full, featuring previously unseen photographs from Lady Glenconner's personal collection.

Lady Anne Glenconner, Lady-in-Waiting to Princess Margaret and Maid of Honour at the Queen’s Coronation, returns with a rich, sparkling memoir told through an A to Z of her life. From affairs of the heart and Basil’s Bar to dinners with the King and the art of entertaining each chapter reveals a vivid moment of joy, mischief or resilience.

Whether offering tips on getting out of the bath with grace, or how to lose at cards with Princess Margaret, she shares wisdom and memory in equal measure. This book is a love letter to a disappearing world and a reminder that life, at any age, should be faced with laughter, a stiff upper lip, and the odd vodka tonic.
