Why I picked it up? After watching the Britbox series “Outrageous,” I was curious to know more about a family both famous and infamous as authors, fascists and English nobility. Much has been written about the six sisters, but this book focuses on their mother.
Who would I pass it on to? I’ve recommended it to many people trying to understand our current political climate. But specifically, I would send it to my friend Jean who longs for civil discourse and cares very much.

Why I picked it up? I read this book more than 10 years ago, so I would imagine I picked it based on my fondness for Anne Tyler. New at the time, I tend to keep a list of recommended books.
Who would I pass it on to? Though I fear it may hit too close to home, I would pass it on to anyone dealing with aging and declining parents. It’s a surreal adventure that takes a toll.
