About the book

The diaries of Frances Burney record the life of a novelist and acute observer of eighteenth-century society. Burney writes about her literary career, family, friendships and years at the court of George III and Queen Charlotte, capturing famous figures and social encounters with humour and immediacy. Her journals are an important source for Georgian cultural life and for the experiences of a woman writer navigating court and literary society.
