About the book

Gwen Raverat's Period Piece is a warm and humorous memoir of her childhood within the extended Darwin family in late Victorian Cambridge. Through lively anecdotes and illustrations, Raverat recalls family life, social customs and the eccentricities of relatives. The book offers an affectionate and sharply observed portrait of a highly educated middle-class Victorian household.
