Deborah Devonshire and Patrick Leigh Fermor
In Tearing Haste
New York: The New York Review of Books, 2008.
First printing
An unusually literate and sparkling correspondence that reflects the personalities of these two old socialites.
Both keen observers of the frailties of men, Debo writes breezily of her unique experiences at Chatsworth, while Patrick replies from the splendid isolation of his Greek hillside, in unmatched tones of scholarly wisdom.
