Bloodorange (pani_od_angielskiego) | 618 comments I've just finished Lolly Willowes; The Corner That Held Them looks interesting. Does anyone want to read a subversive book about nuns, set in the 14th century? ;)

That sounds fun, if I can get hold of a copy.

I have Lolly and Summer Will Show, but I haven't read either yet!

Bloodorange (pani_od_angielskiego) | 618 comments It does sound intriguing, doesn't it?:) Let me know about The Corner..., then. I need 4- 5 weeks notice for oder and shipment.

Kris (krisrabberman) Loved Lolly Willowes. I'm hoping to read her letters, and The Corner sounds great -- will track down a copy now.

Jonathan (nathandjoe) | 43 comments certainly plan on reading as much of her as possible this year, particularly after reading this fantastic letter: http://www.lettersofnote.com/2013/11/...

I think we said we wanted to read her letters sometime. I'm going to read two more of her books for The Virago Project.
