What is Janet Forsythe about?

Published in 1956, this is a bit of what the blog "Clothes in Books" would call high-brow tosh. It's a sort of Harlequin Romance in reverse, where instead of the poor but noble governess reforming a disgustingly snobbish and condescending family, *she* is the disgustingly snobbish and condescending party, and is so determined not to be imposed upon by her employers that it's a wonder they didn't give her the sack by the end of the first week. She's that insufferable. The tale is gentle, mildly interesting, and very much of its period as the eponymous heroine's unpleasant edges eventually get sanded down by her travails - which are of course made even more unbearable by her inferiority complex. Fortunately by the end of the book she is a much nicer person, and reaps all the rewards a 1950's maiden could hope for.
