M. Forster&#39;s &quot;A Passage to India,&quot; published 1924. Any basic similarities other than something happening to a foreign woman in a foreign country during a climb/trip in the hills? Now I&#39;m curious.Book Bird Doghttp://bookbirddog.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859466513418327014.post-87361526754175022812009-10-10T10:33:32.850-04:002009-10-10T10:33:32.850-04:00Another lovely review, darling!<br /><br />xoxox,<br />CCCouture Carriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07401719580947285891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859466513418327014.post-67781390416228748182009-10-09T12:09:52.942-04:002009-10-09T12:09:52.942-04:00Thank-you Mary,<br /><br />No matter the reviews I would have read Anita Shreve anyway.<br /><br />I went to visit your blog and left you a message :DMadeleinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14624058636860716664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859466513418327014.post-36283328390830577752009-10-09T11:39:52.130-04:002009-10-09T11:39:52.130-04:00I appreciate your thoughts. I enjoy Shreve but have reviews for this book have been all over the board. You broke it down nicely. I&#39;ll probably read it at some point.<br /><br />Is Oliver a JRT? I have a pic of Bailey on my blog (scroll down if you visit).Maryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00573126476574980169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859466513418327014.post-90900414956523165562009-10-09T09:41:17.829-04:002009-10-09T09:41:17.829-04:00Most of her novels are very nice reads, and worth reading. She has a unique style I like.<br />This book I had a difficult time with, the begining and end were her trademark, but the middle went into the direction of a tour of Africa and alove story that did not sound true.<br />maybe she tried her hand at something different, hope she returns to her trademark.<br /><br />Here things are a little stressful, but i am learning to relax. Same old same old :(<br /><br />Hope all is well for you, love your ideas and will participate :D<br /><br />Have a great week-end, here it is cool enough to take Oliver fr a nice walk into the woods.Madeleinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14624058636860716664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4859466513418327014.post-31203024951707603922009-10-08T22:51:39.150-04:002009-10-08T22:51:39.150-04:00This sounds good. I&#39;ve only read a couple of novels by Anita Shreve but really should read more. <br /><br />BTW, hope you&#39;re well. :)tanabatahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04592550784537825632noreply@blogger.com
