The Englishwoman's Bedroom

The Englishwoman's Bedroom
- Used Book in Good Condition
Dust jacket notes: "English women have created many of the most beautiful homes, the loveliest gardens, and much of the best cuisine in Britain -- hence, The Englishwoman's House, The Englishwoman's Garden and The Englishwoman's Kitchen, all hugely successful books. Now the Englishwoman's taste, flair and style may be seen in a more private context, as the twenty-six contributors to this book describe their bedrooms and the lives they lead in them. For Anita Roddick of the Body Shop, the bedroom is an efficient sleep-stop in the whirl of a multi-million pound business; for Jean Shrimpton, a private retreat from the demands of her hotel; for Irina Laski, a warm and exotic jungle; for Princess Nicholas von Preussen, a place to romp with children and dachshunds. But for everyone the bedroom is a haven, a place for reading, loving, sleeping, and above all, dreaming. The book provides a feast of visual design, illustrating an astonishing range of styles, from fantasy dream-caverns dripping with lace to bare boards and Bauhaus chairs, from Art Deco extravaganzas, junk-shop gleanings or cocktail-bar chic to simple, sunlit country rooms. A dazzling source of inspiration and ideas, it reveals the limitless scope for individual choice in the room which is the most expressive and personal of all."
