LIFE OF CONTRASTS (PB) (NEW)

Diana Mitford, the most glamorous of the Mitford sisters, narrates her life in an account populated with key characters of 20th century history. Evelyn Waugh and Oswald Mosley fell in love with her; not only Winston Churchill but also Adolf Hitler adored her. In 1936, she married Mosley at the home of Joseph Goebbels, with Hitler as a guest of honour. Her involvement with fascism resulted in three years' internment during WWII. She later developed her wit into an elegant arch writing style as journalist and (auto)biographer.
