A Chill in the Air by Iris Origo (jacquiwine.wordpress.com)

From the archive for Iris Origo, #BornOnThisDay in 1902, my thoughts on A CHILL IN THE AIR, a fascinating diary of Italy's inexorable slide into #WW2. I found this so clear-eyed and absorbing - it's beautifully written, too! #BOTD #IrisOrigo #BookSky 💙📚 jacquiwine.wordpress.com/2023/02/05/a...

Divertimento 1889 by Guido Morselli (tr. Hugh Shankland) (jacquiwine.wordpress.com)

From the archive for Guido Morselli, #BornOnThisDay in 1912, my thoughts on DIVERTIMENTO 1889. An utterly charming novella about a king who goes off on a lark - a celebration of the joys of freedom and the need to escape from one’s duties now and again. 💙📚 jacquiwine.wordpress.com/2016/03/03/d...
