Dorothy Whipple, Winifred Peck, and authors who hop genres – welcome to episode 55! https://www.stuckinabook.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Tea-or-Books-episode-55.mp3 In the first half of this episode, Rachel and I discuss a topic suggested by my friend Paul (thanks Paul!) – versatility vs dependability. Well, the way he phrased it was ‘would we buy a book by an author we liked if it was in a different genre’, and we interpreted it into a question that was easier to type into a subject line. In the second half, we look at two novels from around the same period – House-Bound (1941) by Winifred Peck and The Priory (1939) by Dorothy Whipple – both of which have been republished by Persephone.
