Re: [S0LO] The Mother by Pearl S. Buck - kd

Blaming her for bearing children? Did they know about ovulation in those days? The rhythm method? Contraception? Alas, it gets worse! Probably not.

Re: [SOLO] The 116th Battalion in France by E. P. S. Allen - rr

Still on hold. My mother-in-law passed earlier this week, which will lead (very long story short) to us moving across the country. Hoping to re engage in the project after we settle, which will be at least a couple of months down the road. Oh, I am sorry to hear of this! My prayers go with you in t...
