Her fourth book, a novel titled High Time, was published in June 2023 by Bloomsbury and Knopf. [10]

The once-wealthy, forever-entitled British aristocrats who lost their ancestral mansion in the crash of 2008 in House of Trelawney (2020) face new challenges in 2016-2017.Hannah Rothschild’s writings remind me of the novels of Nancy Mitford. She offers gentle satire and social commentary on issues of the day, including financial and political shenanigans, and of course Brexit. Hannah Rothschild’s new novel High Time is the perfect summer read: mischievous and delicious. I devoured it in one go.” Novel of the week . It all adds up to an ingenious meditation on the true value of art - timely indeed at a moment when paintings and sculpture seem to have become just another currency.'

I have discovered Hannah Rothschild late - her The Improbability of Love was published in 2015. It is the perfect lying-on-the-sofa-with-cake read, being a witty, knowledgeable, sprawling, ingenious insider satire set in the art world. It has art dealers, Russian billionaires, hedgies, sheiks and a-love story. Some of the story is narrated by a painting, but don't let that put you off, it's pure joy from start to finish. Her next novel, House of Trelawney, about the rise and fall of some Cornish poshos, is out in February and I loved that even more.' An eminently readable, well researched biography. It is one-third a history of the Rothschild family, one third a portrait of Nica, and one-third a biography of Monk. Nica comes across as a remarkable woman, strong, feisty and rebellious' Sunday Times The main character, Annie is an outsider to the art realm and also shies to its machinations. She’s just arrived in London with a broken heart, overburdened by the mess of her alcoholic mother who plays a crucial role at the advancing plot. She attracts the attention of a gentle-natured man at London’s Wallace Collection who aids her in researching and discovering the painting’s origins and surprisingly falls in love. The story was interesting, of course because of the near-innumerable parallels to real-world people/places/events, but this book was in need of some serious editing. It felt bloated, if you will. Highlight of my holiday reading was a proof of Hannah Rothschild's fabulous forthcoming House of Trelawney. It's even funnier, more moving and more ingenuously plotted than her brilliant Improbability of Love and that is saying something. Completely delicious.'Like a Rococo painting, this clever, funny, beguiling and wholly humane romance is a treat worthy of its subject.' The Independent Hannah Rothschild is the author of House of Trelawney; The Baroness: The Search for Nica, the Rebellious Rothschild; and The Improbability of Love which was shortlisted for the Bailley's prize for womens' fiction and won the PG Wodehouse, Everyman, Bollinger prize for best comic novel in 2016.
