I loved talking with Carla Kaplan about her new book, TROUBLEMAKER: THE FIERCE, UNRULY LIFE OF JESSICA MITFORD. Thankful there is now a wonderful biography of the best Mitford sister. In print this Sunday in the @bostonglobe.com but here now www.bostonglobe.com/2025/11/26/a...
Crossing borders and making (good) trouble, Jessica Mitford was a model for our times - The Boston Globe
One of the first things that struck Carla Kaplan about Jessica Mitford was her voice — not in speaking but on the page.

"Courage of a steely, smiling and peculiarly English kind was a quality the 6 Mitford sisters possessed in spades. And none—as Carla Kaplan’s new biography demonstrates with Mitfordian gusto—was pluckier than Jessica." @financialtimes.com on @cktroublemaker.bsky.social's TROUBLEMAKER bit.ly/4oGYgKt

Jessica Mitford — more than just a silly toff
In Troublemaker, the biographer Carla Kaplan makes the case that Decca was a prototype social justice warrior
