She wasnt quite sure what to expect, and her uncertainty about living at Stowney House only increases upon arriving: what kind of people live in the twenty-first century without using electricity, telephones, or even a washing machine? Additionally, the notebooks shes organizing span centuriesthey begin in the court of Louis XIV in Versaillesbut are written in the same hand.
