About this listen
From London to Ireland in 1920s, a glorious, gripping, moving and richly textured novel which takes us to the heart of the remarkable real-life story of the Guinness Girls.
Love affairs, lies, scandals, secrets....
Aileen. Maureen. Oonagh. The private lives of the Glorious Guinness Girls fascinated a nation. But privilege always has its price....
Granddaughters of the first Earl of Iveagh, the three daughters of Ernest Guinness are glamorous society girls, the toast of Dublin and London. Darlings of the press, with not a care in the world.
But what beautiful ruins lie behind the glass of their privileged worlds? The love affairs, the scandals, the tragedies, the secrets....
Inspired by fascinating real events and a remarkable true story, from the turmoil of Ireland's War of Independence to the brittle glamour of 1920s London, this dramatic, richly textured novel takes us into the heart of a beautiful but often painful hidden world.
If you loved Downton Abbey, Julian Fellowes' Belgravia, Paula McLain's The Paris Wife or Therese Anne Fowler's Z Is for Zelda, you will adore The Glorious Guinness Girls.

BAD READING SPOILS STORY
A wonderful book unfortunately ruined by the mispronunciation of many names and ordinary words.

Interesting book
As my great grandfather worked at the Guinness brewery I was excited to hear this story, but I really didn't like the narration of this book. It was very hard to listen to. If the story hadn't been so interesting I would have returned it.
