Travelling in Tuscany, but I still want to chat with you about the books I read in September. I have some recommendations for you (and perhaps you have some for me as well!).

Books I Read in July 2023

A musician’s memoir, a mystery in English (set in England); a mystery in Italian (set in Italy); a novel about women’s lives across the classes in India, and two wonderful debut novels set, respectively, in contemporary London and in Paris, France and Nablus Palestine during the first half of the 20th century. I hope you’ll find something to read among these titles, and perhaps add your own suggestions to the ensuing conversation.

Books that will take you from the frozen north to India’s heat, from contemporary London, England, Amherst, Massachusetts, and New Delhi, India to wartime France and Italy.
