[ 5.0 stars ] "NOTE: the following comments are mainly thematic, and I have tried to avoid "spoiler" plot details.In Elizabeth Bowen's accomplished second novel, "The Last September," published in 1929, the story is set about a decade earlier, at the time of the Anglo-Irish War. The protagonist and main center of consciousness is Lois Farquhar, about 18 years old, an orphan, and living with her uncle and au ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 5.0 stars ] "This novel is set among the Anglo-Irish upper classes, the class of Lady Gregory for Yates fans, in the 1920s. The protagonist is a young girl in her 20s whose mother has died and is in effect the ward of her aunt, Lady Naylor. The book deals with friendships and love affairs of young women of this class while the threat of the IRA hulks in the background. What is wonderful about this book is t ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 3.0 stars ] "This book is D-R-Y! It does have good parts that keep you reading, BUT it never actually picks up to the point of page turner...if you've got a weekend to kill and absolutely no spell binding reads on your list, pick it up. It's not awful, but leaves alot to be desired. You will LOVE this book IF you are into the 19th century Country Houses of England. ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 5.0 stars ] "This fabulous book, which I came across during my normal searches on Amazon, is truly outstanding.

I say unnecessary not because the circumstances of the story do not make it logical, but because the circumstances of the idea of life and ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 5.0 stars ] "One of Elizabeth Bowen's finest novels, THE LAST SEPTEMBER has grown in popularity in recent years thanks to the overtly political nature of its topic (the demise of the Anglo-Irish "county" life by means of the Irish War of Independence) and the recent 1999 film adaptation with Michael Gambon, Maggie Smith and Fiona Shaw. Most of the novel's action takes place in Danielstown, the Leinster ..." Courtesy by Amazon
