More about the book

Frances Burney's journey from a struggling young girl to a celebrated author is marked by self-education and a passion for writing. Despite familial disapproval, she published her first novel, Evelina, in 1778, leading to a successful literary career. Her tenure at King George III's court posed challenges to her health and creativity, yet she married General Alexandre D'Arblay amidst the revolutionary ideals of the time. Burney faced personal tragedies, including the loss of her husband and son, while continuing to share her experiences through her writing until her death in 1840.
