Elizabeth and Her German Garden by Elizabeth von Arnim
"Fictional autobiography would be the proper way to describe this book. Elizabeth is snarky and opinionated but in such an adorable way that you can't help but like her. All she wants to do is take care of her large garden and her three young children" Read more of this review »
Andrea Lee and 1 other person liked Cathy's review of Cross Creek:
Cross Creek by Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings
"This book is hard to rate because it's both a fascinating look at an area of Florida in the late 1930s and early 1940s and yet it fails to go deep into the author and her struggles. It focuses too much on the nature around Cross Creek and the people " Read more of this review »
Black Bourgeoisie by E. Franklin Frazier
"Interesting book. Good historical data and references, although I found Frazier's critique of the Black elite to be, well, outright disparaging and contentious. I don't know much about his personal life other than the fact he was one of five children" Read more of this review »

“...kids marked by the special thinness that one has only once, the transparent thinness of early maturity, when, without knowing it, you are immortal. And completely permeable. When you can walk indifferently down the street with a lover because you have become that lover. Two small people without dislike of suspicion.”
Andrea Lee, Lost Hearts in Italy

“And as always, it is surprisingly small, as the voice of the conscience is said to be.”
Andrea Lee, Lost Hearts in Italy

“...which recall(s) a moment in time when raw excess made them a casual aristocracy, apart from the rest of the world.”

“However entrancing it is to wander unchecked through a garden of bright images, are we not enticing your mind from another subject of almost equal importance?”
