Now Reading…
Why They Wrote: Dickens, Thoreau, Flaubert, Clemens, Stevenson by Rhoda Hoff.
As an elementary school level biography of famous 19th-century writers, it’s adequate. Unfortunately, it provides no bibliography or other proof of scholarship. So … it’s hard to credit some of the details. You don’t know if you’re reading apocryphal stories or actual history.
