Review of The Life and Times of Jessica Mitford on Biblioklept

"Irrepressible, Leslie Brody’s new biography of Jessica Mitford, is a fascinating study in divergent attitudes about class, politics, and what it might mean to dissent from one’s own family. Jessica Mitford — “Decca” to her friends — was born into English aristocracy, which she promptly tried to escape. Brody offers a succinct outline in the opening pages."For the full review, visit: http://biblioklept.org/2011/11/27/irrepressible-the-life-and-times-of-jessica-mitford-leslie-brody/
