We met around the time when I was doing the Season at the end of the Sixties. I introduced him to some of the girls. They took him up, and we ran about together in London for a while.... \u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eNearly forty years later, the narrator hates Damian Baxter and would gladly forget their disastrous last encounter. But if it is pleasant to hear from an old friend, it is more interesting to hear from an old enemy, and so he accepts an invitation from the rich and dying Damian, who begs him to track down the past girlfriend whose anonymous letter claimed he had fathered a child during that ruinous debutante season. \u003cbr\u003eThe search takes the narrator back to the extraordinary world of swinging London, where aristocratic parents schemed to find suitable matches for their daughters while someone was putting hash in the brownies at a ball at Madame Tussaud's. It was a time when everything seemed to be changing--and it was, but not always quite as expected. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003ePast Imperfect \u003c\/i\u003eis Julian Fellowes at his best--a novel of secrets, status, and a world in upheaval.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJulian Fellowes\u003c\/b\u003e is the Emmy Award-winning writer and creator of \u003ci\u003eDownton Abbey \u003c\/i\u003eand the winner of the 2001 Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay for \u003ci\u003eGosford Park. \u003c\/i\u003eHe also wrote the screenplays for \u003ci\u003eVanity Fair \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003eThe Young Victoria. \u003c\/i\u003eHe is the bestselling author of \u003ci\u003eSnobs \u003c\/i\u003eand \u003ci\u003ePast Imperfect. \u003c\/i\u003eHis other works include \u003ci\u003eThe Curious Adventure of the Abandoned Toys \u003c\/i\u003eand the book for the Disney stage musical of \u003ci\u003eMary Poppins. \u003c\/i\u003eAs an actor, his roles include Lord Kilwillie in the BBC Television series \u003ci\u003eMonarch of the Glen\u003c\/i\u003e and the 2nd Duke of Richmond in \u003ci\u003eAristocrats, \u003c\/i\u003e as well as appearances in the films \u003ci\u003eShadowlands, \u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eDamage, \u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eTomorrow Never Dies.\u003c\/i\u003e He lives in London and Dorset, England.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 416\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.1 x 8.3 x 5.53 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 08, 2012\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47239948108025,"sku":"9781250020376","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/cDYrSHNIVEJTY1d6SE9YUnNUTitRdz09_8967c014-ef36-4a83-97d2-52269ae41289.webp?v=1768565846","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/past-imperfect-paperback-1","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
