This Strange Eventful History: Longlisted for the Booker Prize 2024:
"Now Long listed for Booker 2024
Messud has crafted a peripatetic novel based on her family history that stretches over most of the twentieth century. Her prose is elegant but this didn't completely work as fiction for me and I think I might have prefe" Read more of this review » |

with wisdom and forethought.

Hi Jill, Thanks for the add! Looking forward to to your comments and reviews :)
Hana, you seem like precisely the type of reader I'd like to connect with! We both love international books. And from your profile, looks like you have a couple of cats in your life, too. (We have 3!)
