House of the Strand.

by mojacar @ Monday, Jun. 08, 2009 - 20:26:56

Written by Daphne du Maurier. This was written in the 1960s, it tells the story of a man, his unhappy marriage and his bisexuality. It also includes use of a L.S.D. type of drug, which transports him back in time to the Cornwall of the 1500s.

I thought it was an interesting story, because it is about things I have not experienced, and having read about what happened in the book, I don't want! It did seem to be a litttle slow to "get going", but once we got to the Cornwall bit, it was hard to put down.
