In her enchanting stories, #1 New York Times bestselling author Rosamunde Pilcher immersed readers and listeners in British settings with beautiful descriptions of the coasts of Cornwall, the Highlands of Scotland, and the society of London. Now, in The World of Rosamunde Pilcher she shares the breathtaking views and tranquil places that have inspired her stories.
Rosamunde’s journey begins in Cornwall—the landscape of The Shell Seekers, The Empty House, and Coming Home—where she spent her childhood. The dreamy villages, stout cottages, and gorgeous gardens of her childhood stand out amidst the artists’ studios, galleries, and cafes.
Then there is the world of September and Wild Mountain Thyme—Rosamunde’s Scotland. Her home after marriage, the Scottish hills overflow with heather and clear streams running with trout. It’s a place of country houses and annual balls that preserve the warmth of family and a stately pace of life.
London has always been a welcome contrast to Rosamunde’s peaceful country life: socializing in the elegant Kensington town houses, afternoon tea at the Ritz, and parties in Chelsea are all familiar rituals that evoke the mood of a time now past.
With an introduction by the author, mouth-watering recipes from her own kitchen, and extracts from her unforgettable novels and short stories, The World of Rosamunde Pilcher is a treasure trove for listeners as well as a testament to the exquisite landscape and glorious cultural heritage of Britain.
