Probably one of the most detailed primers on these writers I've found. The author spends a lot of time with Malatesta, which I can't fault her for and actually appreciate. I look foward to the next subject receiving such laser focus.
User Profile
I had a prior acount to keep myself accountable toward reading more. Life happened and I forgot my username and password. So here I am, starting from scratch. I drive truck, so lately I have been getting into audio books, when I run out of podcasts and get bored with music. It's been ten years since I have read much fiction. I read a book every Sunday with my niece over a meeting app to help her improve her english reading and vocabulary. I used to write and will again someday. The end.
