Houses of Stone by Barbara Michaels (1993)
#2
Hi Desdemona,
I recently read Houses of Stone and couldn't agree with your assessment more.
I loved the quotes at the beginning of each chapter but I too feel she pushed the feminist agenda a little too hard. (And as a dyed in the wool feminist myself I can't tell you how much it hurts me to say that).
I also thought that for a book written in the 1990s it had the feel of something twenty years older.
But I enjoyed the book enough to keep an eye out for more of Michaels work.
Any recommendations
