Unity of Style

Provided that no-one has perpetrated a Konny Kujau on the Rothermere Daily Stürmer, it appears that Unity Mitford, despite being a member of the very same aristocracy that gave us Lord Rah-for-the-Blackshirts Rothermere, was possessed of a canine attachment to Adolf Hitler and also more than a touch antisemitic. Having been generally available for a mere eighty-five years or so, these facts may represent a scoop to rival the nation's perpetual rediscovery of who won the war and who the baddies were; but the sensation is immeasurably enhanced by the discovery of Mitford's diaries, which reveal her as an English prose stylist decades ahead of her time. The account of her day-to-day devotions is written in the Caps-Lock-happy multi-orgasmic idiom of a social-media sycophant live-squeaking their precious moments near the Trumpster; although Mitford does consistently refer to Hitler as "the Führer," which demonstrates both a relationship with facts and a courtesy towards foreigns that would nowadays be barely acceptable either on social media or at the Rothermere Daily Stürmer.
