I love that period, the history, the music, the clothes, everything.<br /><br />Check out my previous post to see what I thought of Started Out Early, Took My Dog. I liked it a little. lol<br /><br />The second Jackson Brodie book was not my favorite of the four, but I think all of them are great.<br /><br />I haven't read poetry in a long time. I should dip back in. I am not a huge fan of Southern writers per se, but I just started re-reading Flannery O'Connor. A Good Man is Hard to Find is so chilling and brilliantly simple.<br /><br />Thanks SO MUCH for stopping by and leaving your comment.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10106720865034468249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6811790305750657771.post-13457657728374456952011-04-01T21:06:44.795-04:002011-04-01T21:06:44.795-04:00Marie, if you're into WWII have you read Phili...Marie, if you're into WWII have you read Philip Kerr's Bernie Gunther mysteries. I've liked them a lot. Speaking of Kate Atkinson i read a review of her latest and got in line at the library for it, something about dog in the title. Meanwhile, I got her earlier 3 with Jackson ?, ex-policeman. I liked Case Histories but couldn't stick the next one. Now I'm reading the one with dog in the title. I read and liked Open City by Teju Cole. I bought 2 books of poetry by women that I'm looking forward to dipping into. One is "One with Others" by C.D. Wright. Have you read about it? I have a weakness for Southern writers<br />KathyKathy Parkernoreply@blogger.com
