The miss of Петтигрю, daughter of vicar and modest governess remaining out of employment, settles down on service to the young actress and at once gets in the monde of London of 1930th : luxurious night-clubs, chic dresses, unbelievable men and love-affairs. Here to be taken aback her and run to usual - to boring, disastrous, but tested - to existence, but a desire to give a glance on a beau monde not on the screen of the cinema wins. And miss Петтигрю remains. She does not yet know that one this day will change all her life."One day of miss of Петтигрю" is surprisingly living, bright history, conquering a reader a thin humour, resilient person and woman wisdom. The name Уинифред Watson costs in one row of English literature together with Пеламом Гренвиллом Вудхаусом and Jerome Клапкой by Jerome.
