Inhaltsangabe

'Observations of daily life are sometimes very funny and the narrator has a good line in self-deprecation' THE TIMES

'It is beautifully written, charming, heart-warming, entertaining, instructive, and delightful' KATE MACDONALD

Tuesday, 23rd

'Late nights do not suit me. Try to think I look interestingly haggard but have to admit that Unkempt Blowsiness is fitter description . . . '

Way before that city slicker, Bridget Jones, there was the Provincial Daughter - an intelligent woman juggling too little money with too many kids in rural obscurity. She did this In between taking deliveries of coal and attending ghastly provincial parties. Our heroine makes tentative forays into the bright lights of London, seeking literary fame and fortune.

At least an uproarious as the bestselling Diary of a Provincial Lady, Provincial Daughter is its worthy and delightful successor, by E. M. Delafield's real-life daughter.

�ber die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Rosamund Dashwood was born in 1924 in a small village deep in the Devonshire countryside. Her mother, E. M. Delafield, was the celebrated author of The Diary of a Provincial Lady, and her father, Col. A. P. Dashwood, O.B.E., was an engineer who had built the massive docks at Hong Kong Harbour. During World War Two, Rosamund joined the WAAF, eventually becoming a sergeant and working with the newly invented and top secret RADAR. After the war, she attended Somerville College, where she met her future husband, Leslie Truelove, introduced to her as 'the nastiest man in Oxford'. After living in England, New Zealand and Scotland, the couple settled in Vancouver, Canada with their four sons. Rosamund has discovered a talent and consuming passion for distance running. She has completed several marathons and is the holder of four gold medals from the World Seniors' Games in Oregon, USA. She continues to write, most recently for The Oldie.
