Elizabeth Bowen?
« on: September 11, 2009, 08:48:56 PM »
Is anyone else a fan of Elizabeth Bowen? I bought a copy of The Last September at a charity shop today, then got home and realised I already have it. If anyone wants to claim it, just PM me and it's yours.

I've never read it, so I can't tell you whether or not it's worth reading, but the other Elizabeth Bowen novels I've read have been good, as have her short stories.

I'll put it up on GreenMetropolis tomorrow if I don't have any takers before then. Thanks!  :)

I've never read her but it sounds like the kind of story I'd like. I'll have to see if I can find her over here - but if I were there I'd take you up on the offer!
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

Chary, is the book still available?

I've never read anything by Elizabeth Bowen, but I've just googled her and it looks interesting.  :)
