Details
In early 1920s England, young Margaret dreams of becoming a schoolteacher, but she comes from a modest background and must "make it." From kitchen maid, she quickly becomes "cook," an enviable title among domestic staff. Nevertheless, she is at the service of "those they call 'Them,'" confined to the basement from dawn till dusk. She knows how to stand up to them and often quits to improve her working conditions, which allows us to discover many secrets of houses... and masters. Thanks to its frankness, the antithesis of nostalgic tales of overly perfect servants, this colorful memoir, published in 1968, brought Margaret Powell (1907-1984) fame and inspired several screenwriters, including the one for the series Downton Abbey.
