Antonia Fraser recommends
 Aristocrats (1994) Stella Tillyard "Aristocrats is my favourite kind of history: on the one hand it's lucid and scholarly, on the other hand it reads like a novel. I hated to finish it." |  Island Madness (1998) Tim Binding "The most stimulating and also the most exciting novel I read this year." |  Confessions of a Sugar Mummy (2007) Emma Tennant "I laughed and laughed... unputdownable." | |
 Refusal (2007) Soazig Aaron "The most remarkable, awake-all-night-to-finish read." |
