Love "Mad Madge." Remember reading Katie Whitaker's biography (same title) aeons ago...Seem to recall she was v. strong on the effect of exile in Holland on M.C.'s work.

Whitaker’s was excellent IIRC but it’s a real long time since I read it! Indon’t there’s any major new information in Peacock’s bio, but it’s very enjoyable and Cavendish is so various she can stand multiple visits with ease.
