Book Reviews of Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day (Persephone Classics)
Book Review: A Charming Book
Summary: 5 Stars
A charming tale of how the life of a woman changes from a dull humdrum existence to a giddy whirl. Miss Pettigrew finds her own niche by ignoring the niche assigned to her by her peers. It's as if one of those very turgid victorian novels had been shaken up and instead of the heroine having to prove her moral worth through trial (or death) is faced with a more modern situation where the right word at the right time is more important. Ordeal by society. A woman with unappreciated talents whose worth becomes apparent through her own acts.
