Flight of the Heron read-along: Part V chapters 3-4

[regshoe]

But till my last moments my words are the same: there'll never be peace until Jamie comes hame...

The penultimate week of the read-along, and in these chapters we are still very Jacobite.

Next week we will, sadly, read Part V Chapter 5 and the Epilogue.

Well, I will just have to imagine them meeting and having a conversation! : )

Oh, and another author: I wonder if Broster and Naomi Mitchison ever read each other's works? They're quite different as authors, mostly because Mitchison was a socialist, but they were both women writing historical fiction in the early 20th century. I do know that Mitchison corresponded with Tolkien.

Oh, that's a good thought—and Broster and Mitchison both wrote on Jacobites, of course. I hope they did!
