The daughter of wealthy, well-connected parents, Joan Eyres Monsell defied convention by earning a living as a photographer, travelling to Russia and America, and conducting a series of affairs. In wartime Cairo she met Patrick Leigh Fermor; their love would last until her death in 2003. Drawing on Joan’s personal archive, this first biography brings her out from the shadow of her famous husband, and sheds light on the mores of the wartime generation, determined to live life at full tilt.
