In the Margins
In the Margins | Gail Holmes
2 posts | 1 read | 1 to read
Reclaimed from history, Frances Wolfreston was a book collector who collected Shakespeare's earliest work. A rector's wife during the enforcement of Puritan values, In the Margins explores the collision between her duty at a time where women had few rights, and her passion for reading and collecting books.

Well, I did it! Managed to get this finished before our book club met last night. Seems it was liked by all. It was a low pick for me. I like that historical fiction is being written about barely known women of substance and that‘s why it‘s a pick. But I found this a little dry and lacking in depth. Pretty cover though. Sort of #ozfiction (Scottish-born, now living in Australia).
