It always bring some surprises.mayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04420545695211847049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8391293127288856260.post-18443757725944529242008-11-15T12:57:00.000+00:002008-11-15T12:57:00.000+00:00Persephone books are lovely.

Worth a visit if you are in the area.<BR/><BR/>I'd recommend The Making of a Marchioness, Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day, and It's Hard to be Hip over Thirty. It would be tempting to buy them all to fill a bookcase with tasteful greyness.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8391293127288856260.post-60881305200884976212008-11-15T11:55:00.000+00:002008-11-15T11:55:00.000+00:00Ms H - Welcome back.For out of print classics, hav...Ms H - Welcome back.<BR/><BR/>For out of print classics, have you tried Persephone Books in Bloomsbury (http://www.persephonebooks.co.uk/)?

I've always liked this quote<BR/><BR/>"Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counsellors, and the most patient of teachers."<BR/>~ Charles W. Eliot <BR/><BR/>Beauvallet was reprinted in 2006 and The Grand Sophy in 2004; both are available through Amazon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
