What is grief, if not love persevering?
Grief is just love with no place to go.

I read the first part, A Fence Around the Cuckoo, which deals with her early life in New Zealand before migrating to Australia, last year and found it quite charming (just like her fiction writing).
This second volume deals with her marriage to Darcy Niland, raising a family and the married couple embarking on their parallel writing careers.

As is likely the case with many people, I discovered George Orwell upon being introduced to his more famous works such as "Animal Farm" and "1984". I found his books to speak with an untampered truthfulness and it soon became apparent that Orwell himself had a gift for clarity. This led to a search for anything produced by this legendary thinker of the modern age. As a result, I gradually stumbled upon his earlier novels, and fell in love with each one. Seven Orwell novels down the line, I'm here at the last page of "Keep the Aspidistra Flying" feeling high at the sublime injection of enlightenment into a life that often seems drab and uneventful.
A thoroughly good read, I recommend it to all
