Frances Partridge, CBE (1900-2004), was “the last survivor” of the Bloomsbury Group and the author of memoirs and diaries such as A Pacifist’s War, Julia, Nothing to Lose, and Hanging On, among many others.
""Her diaries were... distinguished by the honesty, humour and plain curiosity about human nature that were the outstanding qualities of Frances Partridge's writing."" -- The Independent
""A writer blessed with style and an unflinching gaze. Her diaries and memoirs provide a vivid, engaging and often touching account of a way of life that now seems impossibly remote."" -- Daily Telegraph"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
