My book, Mission THAW, is a Cold War feminist spy thriller based on true facts. It is set in the last two and a half years of the Cold War. The protagonist, a CIA agent, is unique not only because she is a woman, but also because her cover is an opera singer.

This book is very well researched on England‘s new divorce law, court, and the people orbiting in & around it. Other reviewers have noted Mrs. Robinson serves as a model trope for victims of patriarchy and sexism. So absurd now that everything sexual was the result of a defect or disease of some sort. “Womb complaint”

IMO the degree of detail about extraneous individuals was a distraction from the Robinsons‘ story.

Four dissimilar women come together for a holiday in a small castle in Italy. And find they have a lot more in common than they thought.

Very, very slow story, & very character focused. Not a lot happens, but the way the setting was described was so gorgeous I just had to keep reading. Very much of its time, but I appreciated how changing their surroundings helped each woman reevaluate their lives. 🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑

“Because of the mythical lothario conjured up in Nin‘s journals, I‘ve always fantasized about having an affair with Henry Miller, horn dog Henry Miller, who can‘t keep his hands off me, who will back me over a couch and go at me, who will fuck me so I stay fucked.”

Although this is billed as a mystery, the reason I loved this book was Thumps Dreadfulwater, his friends, and the town of Chinook. I felt like I was solving a mystery with the group of retired gents I see at the coffeehouse in the morning. Wonderful Canadian author and great example of the right book at the right time.

TheKidUpstairs I keep meaning to read this series! 2d
