Yours from the Tower: (A Young Adult Historical Romance Novel Set in 1890s Victorian England) - Hardcover

by Sally Nicholls (Author)

Bridgerton fans rejoice! This epistolary confection--told in letters among three school friends--is perfect for devotees of gossipy costume drama.

Tirzah, Sophia, and Polly are best friends who've left boarding school and gone back to very different lives. The year is 1896, and Polly is teaching in an orphanage, Sophia is scouting for a rich husband at the London Season, and Tirzah is stuck acting as an unpaid companion to her grandmother. In a series of letters buzzing with atmosphere and drama, the friends air their dreams, hopes, frustrations, and romances. Can this trio of very different young women--one industrious, one artful, and one in exile--find happiness and love near the dawn of the Edwardian era? From the award-winning author of the Carnegie Medal-nominated historical romance The Silent Stars Go By comes a playful, feel-good story of friendship and aspiration pitched just right for fans of Jane Austen and her contemporary disciples.
