The Mitford Sisters
Dedicated to the most scandalous bunch of sisters of the 20th century. Diana the Fascist, Jessica the Communist, Unity the Hitler-lover, Nancy the Novelist, Deborah the Duchess and Pamela the unobtrusive poultry connoisseur.

“I read Selina’s book all through again & cried all over again… it really is a very good book.”
—Diana, in a letter to Pamela
Here’s the cover for Vintage’s forthcoming edition of Selina Hasting’s biography NANCY MITFORD. The title design is adapted from a custom bookplate that Naunce used in her private collection.
SURPRISE: I recommend you put this hot number on your summer reading list. It’s just as entertaining and compelling as Naunce’s own novels—you can gobble it up in an afternoon, but it will stay with you forever.
