I remembered really enjoying the Jalna books by Mazo de la Roche in my youth, and was wondering how they hold up. She was a best seller in her day. I couldn't find any at either of my local libraries, which are quite good, but I tracked one down on Thriftbooks.
I'm devouring it. I love her vivid descriptions of nature, and the way she loves each character individually. And I'm a sucker for a good family saga.
I wonder why she has fallen so far from popularity. I'm not saying its Great Literature or anything, but IMO they're still Darn Good Books.
Anyone else a fan? Would love to discuss.
