Lady Rose and Mrs Memmary Category_Grey Books/Diaries As Polly Toynbee points outPREFACE BY CANDIA MCWILLIAM 224pp ISBN 9781903155431 Like Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day, this 1937 novel is a fairy tale for grown ups, but one 'with an uneasy crash into social reality', as Candia McWilliam puts it in her preface. It begins when Lady Rose Targenet, born in the 1850s, becomes Lady Galowrie when she is 19 and, suitably, marries Sir Hector, the owner of the estate next to 'Keepsfield', the palatial Scottish mansion where she lives.
