Met with widespread acclaim and translated into fifteen languages, this seminal book provoked a rethinking of the traditional Bloomsbury narrative and the rewriting of some major biographies.For decades, Ottoline Morrell was grossly misunderstood. The artists and writers who benefited from her generous patronage and friendship helped to create the false and vicious image of a nymphomanical aristocrat with cultural aspirations. This landmark literary biography presents Morrell in an entirely new light, rightly setting her centre-stage as the brilliant and courageous lynchpin of the Bloomsbury group. She counted T.S. Eliot, Aldous Huxley, D.H. Lawrence, Lytton Strachey, Siegfried Sassoon, Augustus John, Katherine Mansfield and W.B. Yeats among her closest friends and houseguests. A legendary and agonisingly protracted love-affair with Bertrand Russell never undermined this unlikely couples deep and understanding friendship. Ottolines loyalty to her own promiscuous husband survived public humiliation and private crises.Overhauling the long-held conventional view of Morrell as a victim, a creature of her class who was born to be exploited and derided by her wittier friends, Seymour repaints the world of the Bloomsberries and rescues the grand life of Ottoline Morrell from the depths of historical obscurity.This autobiography presents an intriguing narrative about Lady Ottoline Morrell, a significant figure in the history of 20th century Britain. It is a compelling non-fiction account that offers a unique perspective on the cultural and social dynamics of Europe during that time.For fans of Maggie OFarrell (I Am, I Am, I Am), Lucy Worsley (Jane Austen at Home), Colm Tóibín (The Master), Edmund De Waal (The White Road), and Robert Graves (Goodbye to All That).HarperCollins 2024...243450Ottoline Morrell: Life on the Grand Scale450450https://www.gandhi.com.mx/ottoline-morrell-life-on-the-grand-scale/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/1487745/013fd551-0e88-4ac5-9c17-902339f91f9f.jpg?v=638552221851570000InStockMXN99999DIAudiolibro20249780008650360_W3siaWQiOiI2ODVhYjRhYy1hZWRhLTRjNWYtYmM1Ny01NGE1MjZmNmVmMTUiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjQ1MCwiZGlzY291bnQiOjAsInNlbGxpbmdQcmljZSI6NDUwLCJpbmNsdWRlc1RheCI6dHJ1ZSwicHJpY2VUeXBlIjoiV2hvbGVzYWxlIiwiY3VycmVuY3kiOiJNWE4iLCJmcm9tIjoiMjAyNS0wNy0wMVQwMDowMDowMFoiLCJyZWdpb24iOiJNWCIsImlzUHJlb3JkZXIiOmZhbHNlLCJpc0VsaWdpYmxlRm9yQ3JlZGl0VHJpYWwiOnRydWUsImNyZWRpdFB1cmNoYXNlUHJpY2UiOjF9XQ==9780008650360_A kind of blissography, teeming with bon mots Sunday TimesA celebrated modern classic that has revolutionised our understanding of the Bloomsbury group and remains the definitive biography of the groups gloriously eccentric patron, Lady Ottoline Morrell.
