What I’ve Been Reading Recently – Lucinda (Mar ’24)

Spring is in the air and thoughts turn to the countryside…so first up, Cottagecore 20th C style, with writers Virginia Woolf, Sylvia Townend-Warner and Rosamond Lehmann. Then a mix of international noir/crime/espionage and finally a real life political earthquake as Hungarian activists kick off the dismantling of the Iron Curtain in 1989…picnic anyone?
