2024 Classics Reading Challenge - hosted by chinacatsun76

A novel with a place or house name in the title
When the setting figures into something so important as the title, you know it’s going to matter in the novel…perhaps with the author even making the place feel like a character in itself. There are so many books you might choose for this: Brideshead Revisited, The Haunting of Hill House, Mansfield Park, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn…you get the idea!
