Snowed In Again
(1 Sterne)
Interminable blithering on by M Shelley who never says in one sentence what she can ramble on about for 20 pages. I assume her editor hung himself after getting the manuscript. The typical story of the honorable nobleman marrying a pure young beauty and being forced to leave her and flee to America due to complicated misunderstandings. Etc etc . Readers good to very good. misunderstandings.
