Haul from Smiths Bookshop: I bought my first Folio - Brighton Rock by Graham Greene. Such a striking cover. Then a second hand Folio of Agnes Grey and a second hand paperback novel by a NZ writer Robin Hyde - her books are quite hard to come by.
LeahBergen Oh, I like that Agnes Grey edition! Robin Hyde wrote a Persephone book that I‘ve always been meaning to read. 2y

Ruthiella Nice haul! 😃 2y
Centique @LeahBergen yes that‘s her most famous one. I really enjoyed it, but more so knowing how close it is to her own early life. She‘s one of those fiercely independent women writers of the early twentieth century who had a lot of tragedy. (Only lived to 33yo 😢) 2y
