If Anne of the green gable can be written here, how could not my favourite JO from Louisa May Alcot not be mentioned. Little Women, Good Wives, Little Men & Jo's Boys. Ever Green novels. I have forgotten how many times I have read these 4 books & still not tired of them. They have a special place in my library.
ReplyDeleteThanks for reminding me. "Little Women", "Good Wives", "Little Men" and "Jo's Boys" are definitely among my favourite books of "CHILDREN/JUVENILE CLASSIC" genre, and I am updating the list right now to include Louisa May Alcott...! Please do mention any other authors that you think worthwhile to add to my list, especially in the "MYSTERY" genre. Thanks again...!
DeleteI just love Judith McNaught. Her writing style is one of the best that I have read so far. Her characters are so well written and with great personalities. Her heroes and heroines ate both strong yet sensitive individuals. I really like her novel Once and Always. Also the hero of that novel. Oh I could keep on gushing about the book. Maybe someday I would or you should Ramla ;)
ReplyDeleteYou're right! Judith McNaught is an awesome writer and creates amazing characters. Please feel free to gush as much as you like ;-)
Delete"Mockingbird" author, 88, to publish a sequel of sorts. It will be released on July 14th.This is in an article in the newspaper,Tribune, I subscribe to. Harper Lee published To Kill A Mokingbird at age 34 which was an instant classic. The sequel takes place 20 years later featuring ageing Atticus Finch and grown daughter Scout. Will the sequel " Go Set A Watchman" have the same impact? Is a good question. Gregory Peck as Atticus Finch can never be forgotten. A fantastic novel and a terrific movie.
ReplyDeleteYes, a truly wonderful novel. I highly enjoyed both the book ...and the movie as well...!
DeleteThanks a lot for sharing this information ...looking forward to reading the sequel :-)
Originally the first novel was Go Set A Watchman. When it was taken to the editor, he was intrigued by the past flashbacks of memory of Scout. So he advised Ms Harper Lee to first write the book describing the childhood of Scout. So she then wrote To Kill A Mokingbird. It was an instinct classic. Harper Lee then never wanted to publish the book which originally she wrote. Whenever asked about it she always said the manuscript was lost! Her lawyer of today ( her sister used to be her lawyer but she died a year ago) found the manuscript while going through her documents. Persuaded Ms Harper Lee to get it published. I am waiting for it to come on the shelves. 2 million copies will be published first.
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for sharing this extremely interesting information...! :-)
DeleteHi again, Ramia. As you suggested, we have posted on your other page some information about our latest novel, ANIMAL FUTURE.
