Recently finished #TheReturnOfMartinGuerre #NatalieZemonDavis Two-and-a-half out of four stars. Might recommend. Would not read again. "In 1527 the peasant Sanxi Daguerre, his wife, his young son Martin, and his brother Pierre left the family property in the French Basque country and moved to a village in the county of Foix, a three-week walk away."

Recently finished #CanneryRow #JohnSteinbeck Four out of four stars. Would recommend. Would read again. "Cannery Row in Monterey in California is a poem, a stink, a grating noise, a quality of light, a tone, a habit, a nostalgia, a dream." In progress: #TheCrowEaters #BapsiSidhwa
A little patch of land.
Bread on the table.
A dear friend you can talk to.
A small house you can call Home.
Rabbits…
Such a modest dream. And yet so impossibly out of reach.
