#TheMemoirsofTwo

To Each His Own | Leonardo Sciascia
post image
batsy To Each His Own is a Sicilian small town unconventional detective story with a dash of noir. Good Behaviour is billed as a dark satire of 20th-century Irish society and, true to my brand, seemingly with a dash of #spinsterlit vibes. Two Young Wives is a 19th-century epistolary novel of two best friends from a convent who go on to live two very different lives of duty vs. decadence. 3y
vivastory Great selections! My vote is for Good Behavior 3y
Hamlet I‘ve always wanted to read some Balzac, plus I like the “duty vs. decadence” idea. 3y

vivastory @youneverarrived How exciting! Do you know wat it will be, or are you waiting? 3y

Suet624 I might have to order Good Behavior just from your description. 3y
Suet624 Well that was quick. I couldn‘t wait. Ordered it. 3y
batsy @Hamlet It does sound really good. I like the concept of a study of two contrasting personalities via correspondence. 3y
batsy @erzascarletbookgasm They're always so tempting, aren't they 😆 3y
batsy @Cathythoughts @arubabookwoman Happy to hear you both enjoyed Good Behaviour, as that's what the group voted for. Really looking forward to it 🙂 3y
batsy @Suet624 We're always happy to enable each other's eager book-buying over here 😁 3y
batsy @youneverarrived That's wonderful! 🙂💕 3y
Suet624 So I ordered it and then 10 minutes later, after organizing my shelf of NYRB book, I discovered that I already had a copy. I quickly sent the company an email to cancel the order. Five minutes later they responded that they would cancel it. All on a Sunday evening. I‘m exhausted now. But at least I have the book in hand. LOL. 3y
batsy @Suet624 Oh no! I would be exhausted too, hahaha. With thanks to the book gods that it all ended well 😆 3y
Suet624 @batsy Now the Order Department is joking with me through email. :) Gotta love the personal touch. 3y
batsy @Suet624 😁 3y
youneverarrived @vivastory I decided to wait to find out, I like the surprise of it. 3y
