I read her Inheritan...So that’s how Phyllis looked. I read her Inheritance trilogy in 1968, following the TV dramatisation with John Thaw and James Bolam. I was reading it in the school library when my English Master passed through and asked what the novel was. He looked at the cover and said, “Is that the poor man’s Sons and Lovers?” Remember, I come from Nottingham.Little Nellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11862657943846727987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37291817.post-71439374865442230402014-08-06T07:39:36.144+01:002014-08-06T07:39:36.144+01:00Those specs do nothing for her.Those specs do nothing for her.Chairman Billhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07908632282972692269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37291817.post-68482777259704713602014-08-04T14:53:56.307+01:002014-08-04T14:53:56.307+01:00It is an interesting look into people's lives ...It is an interesting look into people's lives but you gain some very useful ideas from the success or failure of the author.Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996243850279671523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37291817.post-54072975217773655762014-08-04T11:59:47.460+01:002014-08-04T11:59:47.460+01:00I know what you mean about reading other people...I know what you mean about reading other people's correspondence, in collecting photos, I do occasionally end up with letters, usually from 80 to 100 years ago or so, and it feels a bit intrusive or invasive to be reading them.
