About this product

Product Information

The marriage was that between the two writers, Vita Sackville-West and Harold Nicolson and the portrait is drawn partly by Vita herself in an autobiography which she left behind at her death in 1962 and partly by her son, Nigel. It was one of the happiest and strangest marriages there has ever been. Both Vita and Harold were always in love with other people and each gave the other full liberty 'without enquiry or reproach', knowing that their love for each other would be unaffected and even strengthened by the crises which it survived. This account of their love story is now a modern classic.

    • Another piece of the jigsaw...

      Having visited Sissinghurst Castle and Gardens , I was keen to know more about the previous occupants. The obvious place to start was by 'Portrait of a Marriage', written by Nigel Nicolson, youngest son of Harold Nicolson and Vita Sackville West and I wasn't disappointed. This book gives a fascinating insight into the life of Vita, Harold and of course their elder son Ben and Nigel, the author of this fascinating book. There is a lot of information to take in and I would suggest reading it from start to finish in a reasonable length of time, to make sense (and enjoyment) of the book, with the complexity of the characters who appear and disappear throughout. This book was an excellent read with a lot of enlightening information
