Monica Peveril Turnbull was the elder daughter of Peveril Turnbull of Sandybrook Hall. At the age of 22 both she and her younger sister Dorothea died from their injuries received in a fire at their home in February 1901. Her father was instrumental in the posthumous publication of her original poetry, translations of Heinrich Heine's poetry and essays on aspects of Shakespearean tragedy. The book A Short Day's Work first appeared in 1902, and was re-published in further editions in 1906, 1913 and 1924.
