I could quote something on every page. This book is my jam! Let me set the connection, the coinky-dink: I‘ve just started A View of the Harbour by Elizabeth Taylor and a character is 20 yo, right after WWII, sitting in an upstairs room looking out the window at the town streets and then this book has this quote:
“Young Christine… Climbs up to the attic room where she has done so much reading and looks out the window.”

BkClubCare Hey @xicanti - this essay has many references to “Gabrielle Roy” (#TIL abt GR) 2y
xicanti @BkClubCare she was from here! I haven‘t read her yet, though. 2y
BkClubCare @xicanti - sounds like a buddy read of Bonheur d‘Occasion (The Tin Flute for this anglophone) 2y
