Love in a Cold Climate

Love in a Cold Climate is the sequel to Nancy Mitford`s bestselling novel. The Pursuit of Love. `How lovely – green velvet and silver. I call that a dream, so soft and delicious, too.` She rubbed a fold of the skirt against her cheek. `Mine`s silver lame, it smells like a bird cage when it gets hot but I do love it. Aren`t you thankful evening skirts are long again?` Ah, the dresses! But oh, the monotony of the Season, with its endless run of glittering balls. Even fabulously fashionable Polly Hampton – with her startling good looks and excellent social connections – is beginning to wilt under the glare. Groomed for the perfect marriage by her mother, fearsome Lady Montdore, Polly instead scandalises society by declaring her love for her uncle `Boy` Dougdale, the Lecherous Lecturer, and promptly eloping to France. But the consequences of this union no one could quite expect…Love in a Cold Climate is the wickedly funny follow-up to The Pursuit of Love. “Entirely original, inimitable and irresistible.” (Philip Hensher, Spectator).
