You're very welcome, Sophie. It is always a treat to hear the women speak and you did it so well!

I’ve ordered it on your recommendation.

You'll enjoy it! Love that these women are given a voice!

You should read Octavia Butler Parable of the Sower if you haven’t already.

I was pondering that! I have just started my MA in Victorian Gothic so am thinking my reading for pleasure will now go right out the window!

Sheridan Le Fanu, Uncle Silas. Get on it!

Just read Camilla by him - brilliant, can't believe I hadn't read that before! The other one from the reading list is A Child of the Jago by Arthur Morrison and it was fantastic! All about London slum life following one family in particular. Then I remembered that it was referenced by Kaiser Chiefs!
