Three Daughters of Eve | Elif Shafak

One of the millions of Syrian refugees who had fled the only life they knew, she first thought- though there was an equal chance that he was a local Turk, or a Kurd or a Gypsy or a bit of everything. #gypsyroad #wanderingjune

Thinner | Stephen King

“Just that one word, sent on the wafting, cloying sweetness of his breath. ‘Thinner.‘ [T]he old Gypsy reaches out and caresses his cheek with one twisted finger. His lips spread open like a wound, showing a few tombstone stumps poking out of his gums. His tongue squirms between them and then slides out to slick his grinning, bitter lips.”

BarbaraBB This is the one he wrote under a pseudonym I learned from @TrishB yesterday. I wonder why? I‘m not such a SK fan but this sounds interesting. 5y

LiterRohde @BarbaraBB He was writing more than his publisher was willing to put out (one book a year) so he wrote as Richard so he could publish more books. I believe he published 4 books as Bachman he had previously written but not yet published, and then wrote and published Thinner as Bachman, before killing him off (being found out). King then “found” two more books after Bachman‘s death and published them posthumously. (edited) 5y

BarbaraBB Wow, such a good story! Thx! 5y

LiterRohde @BarbaraBB I‘m sure that was probably too much information. Or at least more than you wanted. I tend to go overboard when explaining things. 5y

BarbaraBB Absolutely not!!! 5y

Pepita | Vita Sackville-West

Ok so let me try to get my act together for #wanderingjune I obviously wandered off the path and got lost in the bushes!

Here‘s one I‘m adding to my TBR #becauseVita
This is the story of Vita Sackville West‘s grandmother, who is described as “the half-gypsy daughter of an old clothes pedlar from Malaga” Seems Vita was fascinated by her links to the #gypsyroad

Cinfhen, BarbaraBB

Aimeesue I recently acquired Juliet Nicholson's book on her family, Pepita's descendants, and I'm looking forward to it!
