I've not been turned to stone....



I just seem to have been so busy. Grabbing a few moments here and there on the train to and from work I have managed to read two books by Canadian author Margaret Laurence.
Both books are from her Manawaka series, the first being JEST OF GOD which could be included in my collection of "spinster" reads. The most recent is STONE ANGEL, the life of Hagar told by Hagar herself. We flit seamlessly backwards and forwards in time just as the memory does.

I positively LOVED The Stone Angel but still haven't managed to read more of her books. They're ON THE LIST... I love spinster-centered books in general, like ETaylor's _Mrs. Palfrey at the Claremont_. Very much Lisa reads.
