Today I went to Stratford to see a play based on Margaret Lawrence‘s The Diviners and it was wonderful ❤️❤️❤️ I have loved ML for a long time, I‘m so glad the smart creative people do too.
In my July 20th episode: NYT Best Books; Persian cookery; Shakespeare under a tent; a Canadian feminist classic; literature about art; Canadian SSF; graphic nonfiction; two books about Puerto Ricans; etc

I was pretty obsessed with this #Prairie book when I was young in the 70s & also the tv movie/mini-series it inspired .
Written by Rose Wilder Lane (the daughter of Laura Ingalls Wilder), it tells the story of Molly & David Beaton, teenage newlyweds in the Dakota Territory during the 1870s & originally was titled Let the Hurricane Roar when it was first published in the 1930s. Pictured is the edition of the book I had.
