This is a “because of me not the book” bail. I‘m just not in the right mindset to get into the story and time it is set in.

This was an excellent book. It tells the story of Lily Wilson, called by her last name throughout the book. Wilson was Elizabeth Barrett Browning's maid, taken in to her service at age 19. This is a tale of the complex relationship between classes in the mid 1800s. It tells of the bond between them, but also how class structure kept them forever mistress and servant. 5⭐
This was one of my father‘s favourite quotes from one of his favourite poets. #robertbrowning #poetry #classics #bookworm #bibliophile
Fourth book down for #13books13weeks, and playing catch-up for #poetrychallenge2018
Kind of a mixed reaction for me - some I quite liked, some didn't do much for me. But that's fair with poetry, I think.
This was my dad's book. Still has his receipt in it. 55 cents!
