Remarkable Creatures | Tracy Chevalier

Lyrical, Absorbing, typical Tracy Chevalier!
2 months ago

Tracy Chevalier’s sixth novel, Remarkable Creatures, traces the dramatized life of pioneer fossil collector Mary Anning of Lyme Regis in seaside 19th century England. Anning was an illiterate, working-class young girl whose claim to fame was being struck by lightning as a baby and having survived. In her upcoming novel, Chevalier spreads her signature touches throughout the book.

Renaissance

6 months ago

This profile has gone by the wayside for quite some time. Sadly, it is a reflection of my lack of time and the care I have given myself lately. In my renewed promise to create my own tranquil space, to think, to be creative, and to just be, I have decided to be more open and active with other bookworms.

So, here I go again.

Cheers,

    Hey, I see you ended up enjoying the Hour I First Believed
    What made you rate it so highly?

    Hey, sorry for not replying sooner! I haven't been on much. I absolutely love Wally Lamb, if you haven't heard of him you should definitely check him out, my most favorite novel of his is I Know This Much is True. It's a bit lengthy but completely worth it- for me, if the novel is good, then length is completely irrelevant. How about you? What else or who else do you enjoy?

    Hey! I see you're a huge Salinger fan, as am i. So far i've only read The catcher in the rye (naturally) and Franny & Zooey and was extremely intruiged by both of the novels. Currently i'm reading Raise High the Roof Beam Carpenters and Seymour: An Introduction - i'm really enjoying it, i just got to the part where Seymour is being introduced lol. I'd be really interested to hear what you have to say on his novels :)
    thanks. :)

    Hi Saro, I hope to read another Chevalier novel, but instead I started Moby Dick by Nathiel Hawthorne, it took me 5 chapters to get any feeling for the main character Ishmael. Not read Karenina yet

    I finished The Blue Virgin -any suggestions. I found the ending very intriguing, however Ella's rational of leaving Rick weak even though I understood the parallel to Isabelle.
