Stuck-in-a-Book's Weekend Miscellany
Happy Weekend, one and all. And happy December, no less. I'm feeling pretty proud of myself at the mo, because I've basically finished my Christmas shopping. True, I wasn't buying for many, but it's nice to get it done and dusted, rather than trailing around Yeovil in the week before Christmas. Yeovil is many things, but a horn o' plenty it is not. I tell you what does keep giving and giving - and that's the Weekend Miscellany. Enjoy!1.) The book - I've tended to turn down review copies during 2012, as A Century of Books has restricted the (already limited)...

The Garrick Year - Margaret Drabble
I've bought up a few old Margaret Drabble titles over the years, all in slightly trippy old Penguin editions, but I've never actually got around to reading one of them before. The one I really wanted to read was The Millstone, since I've heard complimentary comparisons to one of my favourite books, The L-Shaped Room, but it was 1964 that needed filling on A Century of Books, so I picked my second choice - The Garrick Year. Cup-mark and all (not my doing.)What drew me towards The Garrick Year was its theatrical setting. As I've mentioned...

A Cheerful Readalong
I adore Julia Strachey's novel Cheerful Weather For the Wedding - more here - and I was very excited when I found out that a film was being made. It was going to cinema, then straight to DVD, now I think it's back on for the cinema. I was excited, but with some trepidation, as it struck me as the sort of book which might not translate well to screen. It's so dryly, bitingly funny, and not at all serious. But I'm impressed with this trailer, and think they might well have caught the tone...I'll be re-reading it before the film...

La Grande Thérèse - Hilary Spurling
La Grande Thérèse (1999) was one of those impulse purchases I sometimes make in Oxford's £2 bookshop - the Matisse painting on the cover; the fact that Hilary Spurling wrote it; the subtitle 'The Greatest Swindle of the Century'; its brevity. I was sold. And the book was sold. To me.La Grande Thérèse tells the true (amazingly!) story of Thérèse Daurignac, born into a fairly poor family, with no rich connections or impressive prospects, but who managed to become Madame Humbert, one of the most successful society women in fin-de-siècle...

There's Nobody Quite Like Agatha
In 2000, or thereabouts, I read an awful lot of Agatha Christie novels - mostly Miss Marple, because my love of slightly eccentric old women started way back then - but since then, I've only read one or two. In 2010 I read The Murder at the Vicarage, and thought it might issue in a new dawn of Christie reading. Well, two years later that dawn has, er, dawned. After hearing an interesting paper on Agatha Christie covers at a recent conference, I decided that a fun way to fill some gaps in A Century of Books would be to dip into my shelf...

The House in Paris (in which we learn that Darlene is right, is garlanded with flowers &c. &c.)
A while ago the very lovely (but, it turns out, fiercely competitive) Darlene laid down a challenge. She would read a book by my beloved Ivy Compton-Burnett, if I would give her beloved Elizabeth Bowen a second chance. "Game on!" said I, always happy to give respected authors two or three tries - but she comfortably beat me with her fabulous review of Manservant and Maidservant in early September, which you can read here. I took my time, but I've finally managed to keep up my end of the bargain, and on my trip to the Lake District...

A.A. Milne's first book
I seem to be having a little spate of reading author's first books (look out for Agatha Christie's coming up soon!) and I decided a good way to tackle one of the remaining years of A Century of Books would be a re-read of A.A. Milne's first - Lovers in London (1905). I wrote a little about it back here, in January 2010, but that was mostly about the topic of print-on-demand books. Lovers in London is one of the very few POD books I own, and it isn't very attractive - but it's impossible to find a non-POD edition anywhere, mostly because Milne disowned the book and bought back the copyright...

In a German Pension - Katherine Mansfield
One of the first times that I thought (forgive me) that I might actually have some sort of literary astuteness was in relation to Katherine Mansfield. Our Vicar's Wife and I were off to a lecture day at Oxford on Modernism - this was two or three years before I started studying university - and I'd been reading a Collected Short Stories of Katherine Mansfield that my friend Barbara had given me. I'd never heard of Katherine Mansfield before, and I immersed myself in the book. Most I loved, some I didn't so much, but there was one I definitely...

Five From the Archive (no.11)
It's been a few weeks since I last did a Five From the Archive, and perhaps My Life in Books has brought a few new readers (hello!), so I'll quickly explain what it is. Once I'd been blogging for five years, I had a glance back at the hundreds of books I'd written about, and thought that it was a shame that wonderful titles would be lost in the annals of my archive. So every week now and then, I'll pick a theme and choose five great books from my review archive to fit it - it's fun finding unexpected connections between much-loved books. ...

Blue Remembered Hills - Rosemary Sutcliff
There must have been a time - a dark, bleak time - before I was introduced to the Slightly Foxed Editions. I love the Slightly Foxed journal when I get my hands on a copy, but that doesn't compare to the bottomless affection I have for all the memoirs I've read in their Slightly Foxed Editions series. Which is, I realise, only five or six - I still have a long way to go. But the one I finished recently is battling it out with Dodie Smith's Look Back With Love not only for my favourite SF, but for my second favourite book read...
