Increasingly freed from the restraints normally placed on women, but careful of their good name, they are earthy and satirical, intelligent and resourceful and capable of unexpected insights into the world around them.Sarah's early experiences, particularly at the hands of her adopted uncle, and Eleanor's inability to meet the expectations of her aristocratic mother, lead them to view love and intimacy in ways that are unusual for their time, and their determination to succeed in their chosen way of life is underpinned by their devotion to each other.Based on a true story, Sarah & Eleanor is a tale of betrayal, seduction, loneliness and desire.
