In The Last Hawk, Elizabeth Wein’s characters read and reread Antoine de Saint-Exupery’s memoir of his life as a pilot in the interwar years, Wind, Sand and Stars, and even though I am the only person alive who didn’t care for The Little Prince, their enthusiasm about this memoir made me want to read it myself. So far it seems promising!
My memories of this book are literally as old as elementary school, but I remember enjoying it then!
This is not high on my priority list, but if I happen across any of Margery Sharp’s other Miss Bianca books I’m definitely going to read them.
Ditto, but ditto. I can remember some of the illustrations of different books vividly.
I haven't read the original 1944 novel, but the 1946 film of Cluny Brown is delightful. It was the last film directed by Ernst Lubitsch; it's about love and plumbing.
