Waspish yet generous-hearted, it delights from start to finish
Rothschild's engaging taleHouse of Trelawneycleverly satirises an unconventional aristocratic clan who have run into money troubles
Rothschild . is a witty, stylish storyteller and her overall message definitely feels timely
This is Jilly Cooper territory, with a whiff of Joanna Trollope; a lavish saga about privileged people behaving badly . Rothschild is a writer of high intelligence, however, and she shakes these dear old tropes up into something more akin to John Lanchester's blistering contemporary satireCapital. Rothschild teases out the green shoots with skill and humour . If we takeHouse of Trelawneyas a light-hearted state-of-the-nation novel, it says a lot about the dangers of dwelling on past entitlement and the importance of unsentimental realism
This slyly comic novel is a great dissection of class and privilege
Curl up and lose yourself in this hugely entertaining satire of a deeply dysfunctional family of aristocrats desperate to save their crumbling Cornwall home
A sparkling satire
