With the change of season, I put aside my non-fiction reading and picked up Mrs. Palfrey at the library. I’m a sucker for stuffy Brits, and spent some years as an agency caregiver to elderly, so this really filled the bill. I’m enjoying the quick pace of storytelling and apt descriptions of life when everything gets difficult and no one else around cares. Until they show up and shouldn’t have. My copy is old, from 1971, when paper was thick and typos non-existent, a very pleasurable diversion as the days warm and lengthen. I’ve ordered up her collection of short stories to extend the fun.
