Square Haunting: Five Writers in London Between the Wars by Francesca Wade

5.0

This was a glorious exploration of five women writers and thinkers. I loved it - and - this is also an era that I enjoy reading about. That said, I had read much of Woolf, but though familiar with two others (and not at all with the other two - although while reading was reminded of places when I had heard of them in Woolf's diaries), this book was filled with discoveries and has inspired some future reading projects, as well as a wistful longing to spens all my days reading, writing and researching. That will not happen, but I think most folk who love writing and ideas will find this of interest. The beginning also has great information about the architecture and planning of the squares which was inspiring as well.
