Frances Burney, an influential English novelist and diarist, is celebrated for her sharp wit and keen observations of society. Serving as "Keeper of the Robes" to Queen Charlotte, her life intertwined with notable historical figures. After marrying French General Alexandre d'Arblay, she faced the challenges of wartime and exile in France. Burney's first novel, Evelina, gained acclaim, while her plays remained largely unperformed during her lifetime. Her memoir of her father and extensive letters and journals offer insights into her life and the era she lived in.
