Alright, this is the next book for the RL book group I kinda “joined”.
I am finding it really hard to find some interest in this. It’s just not working for me to have children in Victorian London – the oldest of whom seems to be 11 – have such a developed understanding of social politics.
Gaaaahhhhhh…..
Has anyone read this? I have a mind to DNF this.

She’s big in the UK literary world and won the Booker for Possession.
Not sure that I want to read Possession now.

Ahhh, the heady heights of the “literary” world. That would explain why I never heard of her 🙂

Give me a Dickens, an Austen, a Tolstoy, a Goncharov, a Hugo, a Dumas, even, heaven help me, a Hardy.
But save me from modern literati…

Ouch. That’s harsh. Probably fair, but still harsh.
Anyway, I have just kicked this one into touch.
