Modern Manners is a selection of writings from The Gentlewoman, a warm and conversational magazine that has, since its launch in 2010, set the standard in women's publishing, providing a new perspective on the way women actually look and think. Its eminent essayists, including Joan Juliet Buck, Lauren Collins, Ann Friedman, Caroline Roux and Otegha Uwagba, tackle subjects as timely as how to drink alone at the bar, compose the perfect autoreply and navigate an opening without mishap.
They offer up advice on being a better houseguest, godmother and friend ; and definitive guidance on how to do it well. They also confess to how wrong they got it on occasion, and divulge what lessons to take from their missteps, big and small. Personal advice from The Gentlewoman's international club of readers also appears in the form of the magazine's signature lists. For the specifics on surviving grim jobs from Hilary Mantel and private partying from Kylie, to horse riding with Honey Dijon, waiting tables with Val McDermid and giving birth with Sinéad O'Connor, dive in.
