One Woman's Room: Marilyn French

[callmemadam]

I was reading in today’s Times about the death of Marilyn French. When I was young I read The Women’s Room. I read it while I was eating, I read it over the baby’s innocent little head as she sat on my knee, I read it every moment I could until I’d finished: that’s why it was a best seller. After all these years I can still remember a great deal

You've expressed so well what I've always felt about this book, but couldn't put into words.

I'm thoroughly immersed in the worlds of Jane's Parlour, Flower Patch and John and Mary right now, but am eager to try one of your Elizabeth Taylor recommendations when I surface!

Thank you!

Your reading sounds delicious.
