What possessed the author to marry the ( later) Lord Glenconner is a mystery : he was clearly barking mad in a most unpleasant way even before their marriage , and there is more than a suspicion that this was hereditary, because two sons suffered tragic fates. It is also a complete mystery why she tolerated the appalling Princess Margaret - would you really address someone who was a lifelong friend as Ma'am when you were in your late 60s? a tragic account of a life wasted(less)
