Recenzii
This is a delightful book, and proof that truth is stranger than fiction THE TIMES a splendid first book SUNDAY TELEGRAPH Sylvia Brooke...cries out for the sort of juicy, scandal-laden biography that her odd career fuelled. Philip Eade does the job well, with zest, colour and scholarly high spirits. INDEPENDENT Eade records [Sylvia's] assorted adventures and those of the bizarre dynasty into which she married with wit and style SUNDAY TIMES I'm a sucker for biogs about British eccentrics, and this is one of the best. SUNDAY MERCURY
