Summary:

Orlin paints a dense picture of everyday life in Renaissance England, with an emphasis on personal privacy, the built environment, and the life story of a remarkable woman - merchant's wife and mother of four, Alice Barnham - with a central role in some of the most important untold stories of 16th-century women.
