Lady Charlotte Campbell Bury

    Lady Charlotte Bury was een Engelse romanschrijfster, voornamelijk herinnerd vanwege haar dagboek dat het tijdperk van George IV belichtte. Haar schrijven verdiepte zich vaak in de innerlijke levens en sociale kringen van haar tijd, en bood lezers een boeiend inzicht in de aristocratische samenleving. Bury stond bekend om haar scherpe observaties en haar vaardigheid in het vastleggen van de nuances van menselijk gedrag en hedendaagse gebruiken. Haar literaire nalatenschap ligt in haar levendige portretten van de upper class en hun verborgen drama's, die een fascinerend venster op het verleden bieden.
