The Complete Book of Aunts
Rupert Christiansen
An aunt is not someone to be rationalised or theorised. A nice aunt is an object of easy affection, at an emotional remove from the fierce, complex, passionate and difficult love that encumbers parenthood. This book explores aunts in various guises and varieties, culled from real-life, literary and historical sources.
