This lively, perceptive and beautifully handled portrait is a triumph of the biographer’s art. Rosamond Lehmann (1901-1990) led a life as romantic and tempestuous as that of any of her fictional heroines. Based on a large collection of personal letters never before seen or published, this lively biography conjures up the intimate world of the British novelist whose dramatic life, work and relationships criss-crossed the cultural, literary and political landscape of England in the middle of the twentieth century.
