Description

"Taylor Swift might count Lady Sackville among her muses. Swift’s fans...have linked Idina to The Bolter, a song on the record-breaking album, The Tortured Poets Department"—Tatler

A vivid, meticulously researched biography of Idina Sackville, the notorious British socialite who fled convention to become the central seductress of Kenya’s scandalous Happy Valley set. Frances Osborne traces Idina’s tumultuous marriages, extravagant lifestyle, and the hedonistic colonial circle that shocked 20th-century society. Engaging narrative for readers of social history, true scandal, and biography.
