Great Granny Webster herself is a fabulous monster, the chilliest of matriarchs, presiding with steely self-regard over a landscape of ruined lives.Great Granny Webster is Caroline Blackwoods masterpiece. Heiress to the Guinness fortune, Blackwood was celebrated as a great beauty and dazzling raconteur long before she made her name as a strikingly original writer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51979421843744,"sku":"NEW1590170075","price":16.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/great-granny-webster-new-york-review-books-classics-1590170075","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
