Opis
From the number one bestselling author of Miss Austen, a powerful and moving novel featuring Jane Austen's closest friend and confidante ...
'Displays a keen sense of wit and rich characterisation ... a thoroughly enjoyable book' - Observer
'So envious of anyone yet to read this. A triumph!' - Nigella Lawson
'A masterly piece of storytelling.' - Helena Kelly
'The great writer is brought to life in this clever, well-researched piece of fiction' - The Times
'Thoroughly entertaining, Godmersham Park has some of the same understated wit and sharp observation as Austen's novels' Sunday Times
January 1804: Anne Sharpe arrives at Godmersham Park in Kent to take up the position of governess.
At thirty-one years old, she has no previous experience of either teaching or fine country houses. But her mother has died and she desperately needs an independent income if she is to survive.
For her new charge, twelve-year-old Fanny Austen, Anne's arrival is all novelty and excitement.
But Anne is keenly aware that her new role is an awkward one: she is neither one of the servants nor one of the family, and to balance a position between the 'upstairs' and 'downstairs' members of the household is a diplomatic chess game. One wrong move may result in her instant dismissal.
She has just begun to settle into her position when dashing Henry Austen and his younger sister Jane come to stay.
Both take an immediate interest in the pretty, clever governess who quickly becomes drawn into the above stairs life of the Austen family.
Despite her best endeavours, Anne finds that she is beginning to fall in love. But has her survival at Godmersham Park just become a good deal more precarious?
