The Pursuit of Love

A witty and enduring comedy about growing up, family, and the search for romance among Britain’s eccentric upper classes. Told through the eyes of cousin Fanny, the novel introduces the unconventional Radlett family and their chaotic life at the Alconleigh estate.

At its heart is Linda Radlett, the beautiful and headstrong daughter whose passionate pursuit of love leads her through a series of increasingly unlikely relationships. Charming, irreverent, and sharply observed, The Pursuit of Love remains one of Mitford’s most beloved novels.
