Lady Anne Glenconner

Highly entertaining - but OMG what an extravagant lifestyle! She experienced much sorrow in her marriage but seems to have had an irrepressible zest for life.
Definitely a case of “how the other half lives”

Thank you I am looking forward to reading these are they out in paperback yet?

I've read one of them and I'm amazed that she seemed to take so much in her stride, particularly from her husband.

She does sound like a woman who dealt with everything life threw at her in a calm and fearless manner.

She certainly seems to be resilient! Her first book is much better than the second. Not surprisingly though. Most of the big stories are covered in book 1. A life of wealth and 'priviledge' that few of us would want.

I read her Lady in Waiting, she had some unbearable tragedies to deal with as well as an impossible husband, it wasn't all privilege by any means.

She was on The Graham Norton Show a few years back, she was a wonderful guest, very entertaining. I’m sure the clip will be on YouTube.

I too have just finished her second highly enjoyable book, although she repeats herself.
As an inner city bred socialist, the extravagance of the royals and aristocracy is hard to stomach but I am full of admiration for this woman personally. She has weathered some horrific storms in her life and is full of optimism.
P.S. I do believe her husband was probably bisexual/homosexual.
