There was a replacement for my read almost to death Fontana paperbacks of A Dance to the Music of Time. (Anyone local who want the paperbacks, just ask).

You know the word "trollop" came from the admirable Fanny Trollope, mother of? We owe her all those independent, working women like Lady Carbury - Trollope's women are far more realistic than Dickens's cutouts. Yup, I have to get back on the FS mailing list for offers - they lost me when I moved!
