Hardback. Zustand: Good. THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELER A sprawling escape into 18th century English nobility and one heck of an engaging romantic drama.--NewsweekOne of the most beloved historical fiction novels of all time, Through a Glass Darkly presents a deeply researched, intensely engaging dive into the romance and intrigue of the 18th century British nobility.Karleen Koen's sweeping saga introduces unforgettable characters consumed with passion: the extraordinarily beautiful fifteen-year-old noblewoman, Barbara Alderley; the man she adores, the wickedly handsome Roger MontGeoffry; her grandmother, the duchess, who rules the family with cunning and wit; and her mother, the ineffably cruel, self-centered and licentious Diana.Although her own romantic fairy tale seems to be coming true, Barbara has a lot to learn about the machinations of the royal courts, financial chaos, and surviving with her reputation intact.
