"Bachelor's Bounty" is an interesting 1932 novel by Grace S. Richmond, a prolific author who is relatively unwnown today. Seems like a good plot for a movie from 1930.
Oops...I just realized...I intended The Tale of Genji for the category POC author. Please feel free to delete The Tale of Genji here. My entry for Woman author is Under the Net by Iris Murdoch
I finally read The Professor and finished Charlotte Bronte's books! (Well, finished trying them as I DNF'd Shirley...) I didn't really enjoy it, but at least now I know. :-)
For many years I assumed Miles Franklin was a man, not the penname of a woman who really did go on to have a brilliant literary career. I am glad I finally got to read her first novel.
I read The Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula K. Le Guin for this category. I had mixed feelings about the book.

ReplyDeleteI read The Enchanted April by Elizabeth Von Arnim for this category. Wholesome, if somewhat cheesy read.
ReplyDeleteI think Death Comes for the Archbishop is my second or third Willa Cather book. I love her books. I can't quite pinpoint why yet...
ReplyDeleteMy review of: The Tale of Genji very glad to be finished with this one
