Summary

Summary

Winner of an AudioFile Earphones Award

Julian Fellowes's Belgravia is the story of a secret. A secret that unravels behind the porticoed doors of London's grandest postcode. Set in the 1840s when the upper echelons of society began to rub shoulders with the emerging industrial nouveau riche, Belgravia is peopled by a rich cast of characters. But the story begins on the eve of the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. At the Duchess of Richmond's new legendary ball, one family's life will change forever.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“The plot has plenty of surprises…The dialogue is crisp…and there are a number of wonderful set pieces.” —New York Times Book Review
“What a joy it is to hand the reins to the superb Juliet Stevenson and say, ‘Take my carriage to Belgravia in 1841’…The story is expertly narrated by Stevenson, who paces it expertly in her highly listenable voice. Her delicious characterizations include some aggrieved and unctuous younger sons, a breathtakingly crisp countess, a goodhearted hero, a spirited heroine, shiver-inducing cardsharps, and oh so many more. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award.” —AudioFile
“Another juicy tale of the British classes…The story opens in 1815, as events at the Duchess of Richmond’s outsize ball change the fate of one family; most of the novel unfolds in the 1840s, when newly rich industrialists began mingling with the upper classes…The plot will have the feel of the TV series, a form Fellowes seems rather to have mastered.” —Library Journal
