Book Overview
Another publication from the Angela Thirkell Society North America, Aesthetics and Nostalgia in the Barsetshire Novels of Angela Thirkell is a close examination of each of the Barsetshire novels for elements of beauty (or lack thereof), supplemented by notation of the increasing presence of nostalgia in the oeuvre, and the link between the two. Aesthetics here refers to Thirkell's appreciation of beauty, especially in nature and architecture, rather than to the strict philosophical school of thought.
