    Would you consider checking out our "Alexandria Forum" site - there are a lot of great and intense discussions, and would love to be enlightened to your thoughts and opinions.

    Interestingly, I just read Simon from Stuck-in-a-book saying in a comment at Cornflower's blog that he found this a book which he continues to think about long after reading.
    I'll look forward to the chance to discuss more books.

    I think the cleverness of Sarah Water's writing is that she allows the reader freedom to use their imaginations as part of the story. There were hints that it was the Doctor's presence that were causing the events and the ending was so clever that we would be left wondering just that.
    At one point I was thinking that he was acting out a revenge for something that might have happened to him or his Mother at the house in the past but, again, I realized that was just Sarah's clever writing setting my imagination loose.
    The fact that you are able to continue to ponder a book after it is read shows what a brilliant story teller Sarah Waters is.
    So to answer your question - yes, I think it was because of the Doctor's damaging energy fields that these negative things occurred.

    What did you do academically in order to teach. I'm considering getting on to this path and at present have a BSN. I started a MSN program, but didn't feel like I was getting my money's worth. At present I'm tutoring nursing students at the ADN level.

    Thanks for the mutual respect and consideration. To answer your concern about the care I have experienced, to be blunt, it has been rather disappointing. I have always held myself to a high standard in taking care of my patients, and somehow, naively thought I would get the same. Unfortunately there have been some medical errors with poor outcomes, that has set even the administration on their toes. And you would think that what would follow would be hypervigilant care, but instead there has been a 'shunning.' I never thought self-advocacy would become so important.

    Exactly. We'll have much to discuss on the first!

    Yes, it's much funnier than "Excellent Women" -- I do think I liked it better.

    Hullo, Anne, darling. I see you loved the Pym! I'm looking forward to the discussion, and I'm afeared that not many are going to participate, so do make a point of it, dear, won't you? I liked it very much, but there's something so bleak at the core of her novels that they make me squirm even as I admire the writing.

    I shop for my hats all over the place, sometimes on Google, sometimes on eBay, sometimes on Flickr. It's become somewhat of an obsession. Not that I have any experience with those, mind you.;)

    I must say I admire your new name. And I've meant for some time to thank you for referring to me as a "lady" over at AA. One does what one can.

    It's rained here non-stop for almost two weeks. Mr. B (I can no longer call the boy "bubbie" since he's now six and in kindergarten) is petrified of storms, and often resorts to sleeping on the bath mat in his bathroom.

    I saw you last night in "Bringing Up Baby." You were a scream.

    I think she was more notorious for her love affair with Mr. Johnny Walker Red.

    Did you know --- I'm sure I'm right --- that that speech was done by La Hepburn in a long forgotten Broadway play and that's the performance that inspired the famous Dorothy Parker review: "Miss Hepburn's performance runs the gamut of emotions from A to B"?

    I watched you in "Stage Door" the other night and thought your calla lily speech was splendid.
