“Meh?” Oh my goodness, I LOVED that book, so reminiscent of Charlotte Perkins Gilman's The Yellow Wallpaper and the absolute power men had over women at the time.
Hahahahaha. Succinct, Thomas, succinct. I felt similarly a few years ago but it was one that grew on me after time (the same with Cheerful Weather for the Wedding). I still preferred Little Boy Lost and To Bed With Grand Music.
Skiourophile: Yes, it does apply to the endpapers as well. I would not want that in my house.
Aarti: It sure can be.
Emily: Despite your comparing the two, I still want to read TYW. I think I even own a copy. I thought the most sinister person in the book was Adelaide–she was the one that whispers the threatening comment in her ear.
Sasha: Because you hated the book or just liked the review?
Susan: Your comment is even more succinct than my review.
Natalie: I am glad you liked the post given our differing opinions on the book.
Rachel: Good to know I am not alone.
Mary: I did like LBL, but perhaps less than the rest of the world.
Simon: I am glad you laughed. Maybe a re-read someday will make me think differently. I am tempted to do so sooner than later.
Claire: It took me a while to warm up to CWFTW, but did about half way through it.
