Greetings, Anglophiles!
I wanted to start off this newsletter by announcing that I'm doing a book discussion in March. Right now in the forum, we are discussing which title to read. The choices are: Michel Faber's "The 199 Steps," Anya Seton's "Katherine," and Rosalind Miles's "I, Elizabeth." If any of these titles interest you, or if you have any other suggestions for a book discussion, please come and discuss this in the forum. I need your feedback by February 15 to allow everyone time to order the chosen book. Thanks!
