Lovely Literary News!
My author mom and I both loved Winifred Watson's 1938 "Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day" and I scoured libraries for years looking for more to no avail... Happily, #PersephoneBooks is republishing one that got away, Hop, Step and Jump!

#16 of my 2025 books: surprisingly good American novel from 1920s about a woman who does not have a domestic bone in her body who is able to become the careerist when her husband falls from a roof and has to stay at home. He is the perfect parent: infinitely patient. #booksky #persephonebooks

Wonderful praise has just come in for 'Crooked Cross' by Sally Carson from the novelist Rachel Joyce, who calls it 'an electrifying masterpiece.'
'Crooked Cross' by Sally Carson, from #PersephoneBooks paints a vivid and prescient portrait of one's family's struggles during the rise of the Nazis.

In honor of Jane Austen's birthday, a flashback to the time I visited Bath, and was prevented from attending the Regency Costumed Parade at the Jane Austen festival when I fell ill after eating a dodgy scone. #bathuk #bath #england #janeausten #travel #travelphotography #persephonebooks

I adore everything #persephonebooks you honestly can’t go wrong with any of their books. Typically female centric lost works from authors who were ahead of their times.
