From the Publisher:
Critical Praise for The Journal of Mrs Pepys:
About the Author:
"Cunningly researched, and its charting of the ups and downs of marriage is compelling and often moving." --The Sunday Times
"[Sara George] brings to Pepys' journals not only meticulous observation, but the lateral logic of a detective." --The Times (of London)
"An altogether enchanting novel...It sheds a brilliant beam into the dark interior of this seventeenth-century household and with compassion elegantly scripts a couple's most intimate moments." --Scotland on Sunday
"A charming book, well written...exactly the book for a weekend's light reading." --Catholic Herald
"Sara George has succeeded admirably in finding a voice--and a sweet, innocent but intelligent and warm voice it is--for one of the many half hidden from history by their dominant menfolk." --Margaret Forster, author of Lady's Maid
Sara George is a highly accomplished writer whose first novel, ACID DROP, won the CWA John Creasey Award in 1975. The daughter of the man who wrote DR STRANGELOVE, she was married for many years to Rowley Leigh, the celebrated chef and food writer..
