Lucie de la Tour du Pin was the Pepys of her generation. She witnessed, participated in, and wrote diaries detailing one of the most tumultuous periods of history. From life in the Court of Versailles, through the French Revolution to Napoleon’s rule, Lucie survived extraordinary times with great spirit. She recorded people, politics and intrigue, alongside the intriguing minutia of everyday life: food, work, illness, children, manners and clothes. Caroline Moorehead’s richly novelistic biography sets Lucy and her dairies in their wider context, illuminating a remarkable period of history.Dancing to the Precipice was shortlisted for the Costa Biography Award 2009.
