    Duchess, Duchess: A Contest

    The_duchess I can't help but get the Neko Case song in my head whenever I think about the title to the Keira Knightley film coming out this September. Based on Amanda Foreman's bestselling biography, The Duchess, Georgiana: Duchess of Devonshire, the film looks to have gorgeous costumes, brilliant art direction and a lot of close encounters in hidden places between people who may or may not be married.

    So, as the Restoration is my all-time favourite historical period, I begged for this contest and so we've got some great prizes:

    1. Ten prize packs containing: 1 poster, 1 book, and 1 postcard.

    2. One prize pack that contains: 1 post, 1 book, and 1 postcard PLUS one ticket to a TORONTO screening (which means you need to live in the city so you can come and pick up the pass from our offices).

    3. Twenty posters for the runners-up.

    The contest closes on September 19th, Canadians only please, and make sure when you email me, you put the book title in the subject line, including your full name and mailing address, and answer this skill testing question:

    "Name one famous relative of the infamous Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire."
