Sneak Peak “To think that you dared—to think that my—my noble boy—" "He wasn't very noble. Mothers don't ever really know their sons, I think." "Shameless girl!" cried Mrs. Morrison, so loud, so completely beside herself, that Priscilla hastily rang her bell... "Open the door for this lady," she said to Annalise, who appeared with a marvellous promptitude; and as Mrs. Morrison still stood her ground and refused to see either Annalise or the door Priscilla ended the interview by walking out herself, with great dignity, into the bathroom.” ― Elizabeth von Arnim, The Princess Priscilla's Fortnight Synopsis The story revolves around Priscilla, a well-known German princess who gets tired of leading an opulent and spoiled life in a castle. Through Herr Fritzing's guidance, she discovers that there is a vast and diverse world outside the castle walls and she yearns to leave. She decides to live a simpler life so she can read poetry, do good deeds, and live in a cottage in the country. Although Priscilla may believe she prefers a simpler life, when it matters most, she wants to continue living her life exactly as she did in the castle.
