    Had to answer twice - - this is one of my very favorite books.

    "My name is Mary Katherine Blackwood."

    Missed it. Shirley Jackson, "We always lived in the castle". Merricat did a Lucrezia Borgia impersonation.

    Oh, wow! Almost a year has gone by and I only now came across your reply now, by chance! I'm sorry to have missed it!

    Yes! "We Have Always Lived in the Castle"

    I don't quite get the Borgia reference but I'm not so well versed on Borgia. But I certainly know there must be some connections -- you're amazing with such a wide and eclectic range of knowledge.

    Again, like I said, I love your question!

    "As soon as they saw me, all stopped talking.  So intense was the silence, that you could have heard a gnat in flight.  Then they started to smile again, the women with slightly lowered eyes.  When I was standing before them on the wharf, they all raised their heads to look me full in the face.  Some children clung to their mothers' coats, and others began to scream with fright or to weep."

     In this day and age, with so much information available at the fingertips online, the answer to anyone's entry is too easy to find, right?

    I'm a bibliophile. I'm also a bit of a fossil, my literary knowledge is mostly BG (Before Google).
