Virago Modern Classics discussion

Sort of dead around here. I ordered three used Viragos from www.awesomebooks.com, The Sugar House, SEA GRAPE TREE and O Pioneers!, all with the old green spines. Excelent prices (1.99 pound each, free shipping). Lots of titles I haven't seen readily available elsewhere.

Hi Karen, I haven't read any of those Viragos but have heard lots of positive comments about Willa Cather's writing. One of these days I'll get around to reading My Antonia.

I recently finished The Rector and the Doctor's Family by Margaret Oliphant. These are the first two books in the Carlingford Chronicles. I'll admit I found the second story dragged a little, but together they set the scene nicely for the later Carlingford stories which I will tackle later in the year.

Cheerio!
