But what followed was a tragicomedy of illness, scandal and failed business ventures. Nevertheless, on her return to England Fanny turned her misfortunes into a remarkable book. A masterpiece of nineteenth-century travel-writing, Domestic Manners of the Americans is a vivid and hugely witty satirical account of a nation and was a sensation on both sides of the Atlantic.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Classics","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45355691311255,"sku":"9780140435610","price":989.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780140435610.webp?v=1767671078","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/domestic-manners-of-the-americans-9780140435610","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
