Revue de presse :
An excellent study of passion. (William Leith EVENING STANDARD)
Hilton has no truck with those who claim that Nancy died of a broken heart; her crisply written book is instead something of a manifesto for a more pragmatic, Gallic approach to human relations. (Daisy Goodwin THE SUNDAY TIMES)
An extraordinary, yet also typical, love affair told with sympathy and intelligence. (THE SUNDAY HERALD)
Not a "Mitford book", says Hilton, but this nicely barbed reappraisal of Nancy's 30-year affair with politician and unlikely philanderer Palewski extrapolates heavily from her world and writings. (THE SUNDAY TELEGRAPH SEVEN Magazine)
For those who like the work and life of Nancy Mitford this will also be a most useful and entertaining biography. (CONTEMPORARY REVIEW)
Makes for fascinating reading. (THE GOOD BOOK GUIDE)
It is true passion that this volume focuses on. (THIS ENGLAND)
Delectable (THE INDEPENDENT)

THE HORROR OF
LOVE is a story about two people - Nancy Mitford and the Free French commander Gaston Palewski - who conducted a less than ideal love affair in post-war France. She was one of the twentieth century's most glamorous and popular authors, he was one of the most significant European politicians of the period.
He inspired and encouraged her to write one of the funniest, most painfully poignant and best-loved novels of its time, The Pursuit of Love, and she supported him through a tumultuous political career. By modern standards, their relationship was sometimes a disaster - "Oh, the horror of love!" once exclaimed
Nancy to her sister, Diana Mosley. But the result is Lisa Hilton's provocative,
emotionally challenging book about a very different way of conducting an affair of the heart. With discipline, gentleness and a great deal of elegance, Nancy Mitford and Gaston Palewski achieved a very adult ideal, whose story will test the reader as much as it charms.
