Trefusis, Violet. Don’t Look Round. Second Printing. 1953. Book and dust jacket are both in very good condition. Decorations by Philippe Jullian. 

It is easy to see Violet Trefusis as a supporting player in other stories. After all, her mother Alice Keppel was the beloved mistress of Edward VII; then she was the girl with whom V. Sackville-West ran away; and now, it is her great niece, the Duchess of Cornwall who eclipses her. In this memoir, both she and her delicious aphorisms take center stage. She glosses over such details as her long love affair with the Princesse de Polignac (née Winnaretta Singer), but her legendary charm and wit are much in evidence. 

“Marriage can be divided into two categories: those that begin well and end badly, those that begin badly and end well.” 

--Violet Trefusis
