For the Mitford aficionado who has everything, there is like a whole genre of memoirs of the fucked-up childhoods of British aristos of the Bloomsbury and Guinness persuasions. Spoilers galore:

Portrait of a Marriage, by Nigel Nicolson, in which he describes how his father (Harold Nicolson) flew a biplane to France to drag his mother (Vita Sackville-West) away from her lover (Violet Trefusis). Son goes deep into his mother's sex life and it is awkward

Deceived With Kindness, by Angelica Garnett, in which she describes learning that her father was not, in fact, her mother (Vanessa Bell)'s husband (Clive Bell) but Vanessa's mostly-gay lover (Duncan Grant); Angelica grows up to marry David Garnett, her father's former lover, with the encouragement of all concerned. Angelica's marriage is wretched and everyone's motivations are suspect

Great Granny Webster, by Caroline Blackwood, and the thrilling sequel Why Not Say What Happened, by Blackwood's daughter Ivana Lowell, in which Lowell tries to figure out which of Blackwood's lovers was her father

Tl,dr; being a British aristo seems like a lotta work emotionally
