This is a stunning, thought-provoking book! I love owlish Cordelia and her conversations with Jerome.

This book is so much fun. The ending holds the kind of melancholic nostalgia that all adults know.

Well, this is the end of hour 8 for me in the @24in48 #readathon. A few hours short of my goal today, but I'm happy to have finished two long-standing, awesome, in-progress reads! Progress on a third--Alice's second adventure-- is well underway. More tomorrow! :)

Best book of the year so far! The pace seems slow but draws you in, and the story is full of forgiveness and grace. #THEWALLSARECLOSINGIN @Liberty

Loved this family drama! The gin motif clinched it.

This book is slow-going but worth it! Very theoretical, but fascinating in its dissection of the economic, medical, and political systems that make up society.

"She was married, true; but if one's husband was always sailing round Cape Horn, was it marriage? If one liked him, was it marriage? If one liked other people, was it marriage? And finally, if one still wished, more than anything in the whole world, to write poetry, was it marriage? She had her doubts."
