alas - yes, i think with the class/snobbery thing, you'll either love it or rage against it. pd james' depiction of a working class, frankly peasant woman in the skull beneath the skin was almost a parody, i felt, as if james had never met ordinary folk.
cavatina - my knowledge is sadly lacking and i'd not heard of galford. also katherine burdekin is someone i must check out - she was a dyke who wrote feminist/anti nazi novels earlier this century. she was also the sister of the amazing rowena cade, who built the minack theatre in cornwall. |
