The Duchess
Lady Georgiana Spencer became the queen of fashionable society in the late 18th century and founder of the most important political salon of her time. But Georgiana’s public success concealed an unhappy marriage, a gambling addiction, drinking, drug-taking, and rampant love affairs with the leading politicians of the day. Based on the penetrating bestseller by Amanda Foreman and starring Keira Knightley and Ralph Fiennes, The Duchess reveals a fascinating woman whose struggle against her own weaknesses and determination to play a part in the affairs of the world make her a vibrant, astonishingly contemporary figure.
