The Birth of Rowland
Author: Lady Emily Lutyens
Hardcover, good condition, First edition (1956).
The Birth of Rowland by Lady Emily Lutyens is an intimate collection of letters exchanged in 1865 between Robert Bulwer-Lytton (later the first Earl of Lytton) and his wife, Edith Villiers, edited by their daughter Emily Lutyens. Through their deeply personal correspondence, the book reveals the early years of their marriage, their hopes, anxieties and the ordinary yet profound challenges of Victorian life. It offers insights into their character and relationship, and by extension, into the familial and social milieu that shaped Emily Lutyens herself.
