Robertson Davies

I'm just about done with Robertson Davies "The Cornish Trilogy ". I'd read "The Lyre of Orpheus" (the finale) years ago, but never the preceding two book, "The Rebel Angels", "What's Bred In The Bone". Amazing stuff; rich, rewarding, a great, thoughtful book to absorb. A tough read if you don't care about Rabelais, the theatre, or Toronto's religious background. Once you're done with this, by all means continue with the just as good, just as erudite, and just as long (!) "The Deptford Trilogy" Posted by netrc at April 18, 2009 12:38 PM
