You are so welcome, Fiona.
I must confess that I have not read some of the literature that you have mentioned. I think I need to rectify that. The Huxley stuff sounds way ahead of its time. I have heard loose comparisons to Gattaca, a film that I have watched and enjoyed.
I read The Hobbit to Jamie when she was 7 -8. She did enjoy it but we never finished it. At 16, I'm not sure that I will convince her to read together again but that's ok. I molded her into a Star Wars/LOTR fan when she was 3, so I'll settle for that.
4 monarchs and 2 world wars! Perspective for even the most close minded of people. Infinite respect to her. I'm sure she had some amazing stories.
And both of us getting all choked up! A couple of emotional wet blankets together. lol
Btw, the beginning was a very good place to start, wasn't it! 😁
Keep being you!
