pickI was intrigued by the intro describing Rosalind Belben's books as hard to read but impossible to forget. After reading this one, I'm not sure I agree with ithat statement. I found this book easy to read. Parts are memorable, but I don't feel it'll be a lingering one for me. Belben writes both plainly and with a poetic quality. Overall, it's a slight pick.
A whole chapter on Boudica/Boudicca. So little is known about her. that is a lot. 👩🏻🦰🗡.
pickOriginally Two Stories consisted of “Three Jews” by Leonard and “The Mark on the Wall” by Virginia.
Who knew that it was possible to get so many thoughts from looking at a mark on the wall? In the introduction to the story it said that this is when we first see the author Virginia is to become and I can see that.
This edition contains a story by Mark Haddon titled “St Brides Bay” which seems to mirror Virginia‘s writing style.
#VirginiaBloomsberries September #buddyread is Two Stories. This is her 2nd publication from 1917. It was published by The Hogarth Press, set up by Leonard and Virginia Woolf. I'm reading the centennial copy with a commisioned essay by Mark Haddon.
A discussion thread will be posted at the end of the month.
