Having visited Sissinghurst Castle and Gardens , I was keen to know more about the previous occupants. The obvious place to start was by 'Portrait of a Marriage', written by Nigel Nicolson, youngest son of Harold Nicolson and Vita Sackville West and I wasn't disappointed. This book gives a fascinating insight into the life of Vita, Harold and of course their elder son Ben and Nigel, the author of this fascinating book. There is a lot of information to take in and I would suggest reading it from start to finish in a reasonable length of time, to make sense (and enjoyment) of the book, with the complexity of the characters who appear and disappear throughout. This book was an excellent read with a lot of enlightening information
