330 .. $a "From the award-winning novelist and writer of Upstairs Downstairs, the launch of
a brilliant new trilogy about what life was really like for masters and servants before
the world of Downton Abbey As the Season of 1899 comes to an end, the world is poised
on the brink of profound, irrevocable change. The Earl of Dilberne is facing serious
financial concerns. The ripple effects spread to everyone in the household: Lord Robert,
who has gambled unwisely on the stock market and seeks a place in the Cabinet; his
unmarried children, Arthur, who keeps a courtesan, and Rosina, who keeps a parrot
in her bedroom; Lord Robert's wife Isobel, who orders the affairs of the household
in Belgrave Square; and Grace, the lady's maid who orders the life of her mistress.
Lord Robert can see no financial relief to an already mortgaged estate, and, though
the Season is over, his thoughts turn to securing a suitable wife (and dowry) for
his son. The arrival on the London scene of Minnie, a beautiful Chicago heiress with
a reputation to mend, seems the answer to all their prayers. As the writer of the
pilot episode of the original Upstairs, Downstairs--Fay Weldon brings a deserved reputation
for magnificent storytelling. With wit and sympathy--and no small measure of mischief--Habits
of the House plots the interplay of restraint and desire, manners and morals, reason
and instinct."
