Theophilus North: A Novel | Thornton Wilder
post image
Mehso-so

It‘s the 1920s and a new Yale grad finds himself working for the rich in Newport RI over a summer. He‘s no Nick Carraway & so this book stays in the shallows. I read it while on vacation there. Fun to walk the town with the characters & learn stuff. While there I saw that Newport has a big variety of trees. For centuries the residents planted trees from around the globe. There‘s even a colonial tree walk! A pretty good book in a great setting.

Hobbinol @BarbaraTheBibliophage She really was the divine Miss M tonight! People cheered louder than any Broadway house I've heard before!... 8y
Hobbinol @Suet624 It has been grand! Too bad we can't afford to do this every year! ❤️NYC ❗️It's fleet week and boats are lined up on the Hudson and Broadway really is the great white way with sailors everywhere... 8y
Hobbinol @rubyslippersreads it's been a great day to be sure, but it's really taking a toll on my book savings. 8y
