Customer Reviews

frank nostalgia

Diana Athill has remarkable recall for the details of a semi-idyllic, semi-horrific childhood in post-Victorian England. She writes very frankly of what it was like to be a child then (powerless, coddled, ignored, free, boarded away). And she draws many parallels with the events of her later life that are featured in her other memoirs.
