Frances Partridge is the oldest surviving member of the Bloomsbury Group. At the age of 93 she published "Other People" which chronicled her life between 1963 and 1966 when she was struggling to come to terms with the deaths of both her husband Ralph and her son Burgo. This sequel to that volume follows her life between the years 1967 and 1970. With the support of friends, who included Julia Strachey, Robert Kee, Raymond Mortimer, Rosamund Lehmann and Gerald Brenan, travelling and her unfailing interest in the world outside, Partridge comes to terms with existence after her twofold loss. She is endlessly observant of nature and people, and has an acerbic sense of humour, a refusal to indulge in self-pity and, perhaps above all, a passion for conversation.
