A House Full of Daughters
あらすじ・解説
As narrated on BBC Radio 4
All families have their myths and legends. For many years Juliet Nicolson accepted hers - the dangerous beauty of her flamenco dancing great-great-grandmother, Pepita; the flirty manipulation of her great-grandmother, Victoria; the infamous eccentricity of her grandmother, Vita; her mother's Tory-conventional background.
But then Juliet, a renowned historian, started to question. As she did so, she sifted fact from fiction, uncovering details and secrets long held just out of sight.
A House Full of Daughters takes us through seven generations of women. In the 19th-century slums of Malaga, the salons of fin-de-siècle Washington, DC, an English boarding school during the Second World War, Chelsea in the 1960s, and the knife edge that was New York City in the 1980s, these women emerge for Juliet as people in their own rights but also as parts of who she is and where she has come from.
A House Full of Daughters is one woman's investigation into the nature of family, memory, the past - and, above all, love. It brings with it messages of truth and hope for us all.
