I borrowed this and the Elizabeth Jane Howard biog as a result of that day at Kew and read EJH first as it seemed a quicker read; but the Russian one is very readable and more rewarding. I must try her other books; the only one I have read is Ekaterinburg.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17554985023503646664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-731398893178184544.post-71299848247136118132016-11-23T08:53:27.595+00:002016-11-23T08:53:27.595+00:00I am glad you found this book as good as I am expe...I am glad you found this book as good as I am expecting it to be. I bought it at the Kew event because HR is such a good speaker and have read three of her other books. I also heard her speak at little old Hampton library which was a real treat. <br />She is at the top of the league of historical non fiction as far as I am concerned. Thanks for the encouragement to get the book off my TBR read pile soon!Annnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-731398893178184544.post-54512919639479788912016-11-22T05:13:53.336+00:002016-11-22T05:13:53.336+00:00I went to a talk by Helen Rappaport a few weeks ag...I went to a talk by Helen Rappaport a few weeks ago, Mystica - and she made this sound so interesting, I knew I had to read it.
