Honestly this book was very similar to her first one it's just more details about the fascinating life she has lived.
She just turned 90 and seems sharp as a tack. She clearly loves her new career of being an author, undertaken in her 80s. Glenconner seemed like such an interesting woman in "Lady in Waiting," and that continues in this book. She ended that book by looking with optimism toward the future, always wondering "Whatever next?" So, when I saw her new book, "Whatever Next?" up for review, I was happy to sign up. You may remember that Anne was a maid of honor at Queen Elizabeth's coronation, and then served as a lady in waiting to Princess Margaret for several decades.
Not long ago, I read and enjoyed "Lady in Waiting," by Anne Glenconner. She has organized extravagant parties, run huge houses, camped in jungle in Mustique, served on royal tours, as well as survived the devastating loss of two sons, and nursing another back to life.Ī treasury of hard-won wisdom, as well as vintage entertainment of the kind only Anne Glenconner can deliver. Now in her ninth decade, she's keen to share everything her unexpected life has taught her-the wise, the extraordinary, hilarious, poignant, and illuminating learnings from a life which has taken her from Debutante of the Year to traveling salesman, as well as wife to volatile Lord Glenconner, and Lady in Waiting to Princess Margaret. Lady in Waiting brought us royal magic, beguiling insight, and jaw-dropping stories from life inside Anne Glenconner’s privileged circle, which though golden didn't always glitter. Bracing honesty, rare insight, and hilarious revelations from the author of the smash-hit New York Times bestselling memoir Lady in Waiting as she shares everything she's learned from her extraordinary and unexpected life.
