A review by korrinad
Wideacre by Philippa Gregory

5.0

As always, I love Philippa Gregory's writing. Wideacre is certainly very different from her other works and wow, it has some pretty intense scenes. It challenged me and captured me at the same time. I wouldn't say I "enjoyed" the story but I couldn't put it down. I particularly appreciated the way in which Gregory managed incorporate themes of social inequality and really highlighted the suffering of the poor due to the individual choices of the rich. When reading, I couldn't help but think that not much has changed in some respects. Will be reading the next book for sure.
