The Mitford Affair Summary

“The Mitford Affair: A Novel” is a good book that you can read online or download to read it later. Between the World Wars, the six Mitford sisters―each more beautiful, brilliant, and eccentric than the next―dominate the English political, literary, and social scenes. Though they’ve weathered scandals before, the family falls into disarray when Diana divorces her wealthy husband to marry a fascist leader and Unity follows her sister’s lead all the way to Munich, inciting rumors that she’s become Hitler’s mistress. As the Nazis rise in power, novelist Nancy Mitford grows suspicious of her sisters’ constant visits to Germany and the high-ranking fascist company they keep. When she overhears alarming conversations and uncovers disquieting documents, Nancy must make excruciating choices as Great Britain goes to war with Germany. Probing the torrid political climate in the lead-up to World War II and the ways that seemingly sensible people can be sucked into radical action, The Mitford Affair follows Nancy’s valiant efforts to stop the Nazis from taking over Great Britain, and the complicated choices she must make between the personal and the political.

Brief Summary The Mitford Affair by Marie Benedict

The Mitford sisters are the talk of London but not always for the best reasons. Nancy Mitford is a bestselling author whose sisters, Diana and Unity, are fascists who befriend Adolph Hitler at the beginning of his reign as Fuhrer. As Nancy deals with the ramifications of her sisters’ actions she must also determine whether or not to turn in her sister for espionage.This was one of my most looked-forward books of the year and it did not disappoint. Benedict’s retelling of the fascist Mitford sisters was eye-opening. The lengths Unity went to in order to get close to Hitler were scary which makes sense with her being known as Hitler’s stalker. Marie Benedict is known for her research and meticulous attention to detail. She tells not only the story from Nancy’s perspective but also from Diana’s, who will do anything for the man she loves, and Unity who creates a group of young Nazis in order always to have information on Hitler’s whereabouts. This story was very well done and kept me interested from beginning to end.
