You sure? It's only a paperback...

I've just realized I still have my (1997) penguin copy of Hungry Hearts by Anzia Yezierska. Would you like it?

So glad you discovered Nina Berberova. I hope you will read her autobiography 'the italics are mine'. She was an incredibly brave and creative woman.

thanks for stopping by my 50 book challenge list! I just noticed today that Paper Cuts had a discussion of Housekeeping. Since my boss keeps lurking around my computer (wonder why?) I haven't had time to read it. Do they like it as much as I did?

Hi Marise

for help on posting book covers I found this information to be quite helpful....

The book covers are those already existing in LT, most of which are Amazon covers.

I found a biography & info on Cooper Edens here: http://biography.jrank.org/pages/1987/Ed.... I only have two of his books, but hope to have them all. He is enchanting.

Your profile pic is wonderful. Who painted it?

Hi! Nice to know I'm not the only one who loves "The Razor's Edge"! Are you into anything else Maugham as well? I recently found his collected works - 27 volumes, hardback - in a Charing Cross bookshop and lugged them all the way home. But it was worth it!

Where did my message go? Again, I have some Viragos to send you but I think I will wait until after the holidays when the post office is sane again. XXXLois

I finished Seasoned Timber and posted a review on my blog, if you're interested.

No comments posted? How strange. Have you been cleaning house? I was wondering if you had ever read Dorothy Canfield Fisher's Seasoned Timber. I'm reading it now and loving it. I've read The Home-Maker, which I also loved, and I've just ordered a copy of The Brimming Cup, which, I noticed, you've mentioned as one of your favorite novels by one of your favorite novelists. I'm going to have to add Dorothy Canfield Fisher to my list of favorite authors, too!
