This book was quite a surprise. I don't remember how or when I heard about it. I thought it was going to be a light fun romance. It turned out to be a charming story of Miss Prudencia Prim and her learning to love as she has not really known before. The writing was exquisite, the story touched my heart and I so hope the author writes another book.I am failing in my attempt to review this book. And it's so necessary because there are number of negative reviews about this book which are terribly unjustified. I'm going to have to come back when I've had a little time to really digest it.In the meantime, this book takes the reader to a place that is so idyllic and literary but it could only exist in our dreams but oh how much we wish it really did exist here. I really hope that this author is going to be writing more books like this. I think
This is a hard book to rate. All the ideas I love to read about are there. I really want to hug the author and thank her for throwing this out there. But I often found myself annoyed while reading it. Perhaps, it was a bit sanctimonious even while trying so hard not to be. I enjoyed the town of San Ireono and yes, it would be a great place to live with all the tea and cakes and conversation. I would have liked it more if the characters were more developed than the ideals. Nevertheless, good job
I have to confess, the moment I heard about The Awakening of Miss Prim, I could not wait to read it. For a book lover like me, the idea of being holed up as a librarian in a rustic, quaint and idyllic town was like a dream come true. The village of San Ireneo de Arnois was a bit like something from a fairytale. The village, captures the ideals that many of us who oppose the fast-pace contemporary life would prefer. It is an enchanting, simple place that takes the reader back in time.The
"Four female Ghostbusters?! The feminists are taking over!"Oh, dear. This is awkward. You see, this book is a major favorite of a friend of mine, so, naturally, I expected to at least like it. And instead . . . *coughs*Good news first: The setting is lovely. Truly, lovely. And deftly evoked: just enough detail, but not too much. The attitudes of debate and discussion in the book, problematic though I found most of them, at least provided a stimulating intellectual atmosphere that does challenge
"Wanted: a feminine spirit quite undaunted by the world to work as a librarian for a gentleman and his books. Able to live with dogs and children. Preferably without work experience. Graduates and postgraduates need not apply."Miss Prudencia Prim, quite undaunted by her lack of experience with dogs and children, and in possession of a number of degrees, presents herself to the gentleman advertiser looking for someone to organise his extensive private library, secure in the knowledge that she is
San Ireneo de Arnois is a generically European village that feels like its been frozen in about 1950: its the sort of place that people who are beaten down by busy city life retreat to so they can start creative second careers. Prudencia Prim comes here to interview for a job as a librarian, having read a rather cryptic job advertisement. Her new employer, The Man in the Wingchair (never known by any other name), has her catalogue his priceless collection of rare books, many of them theological
