Persphone Books

Peresphone Books are previously forgotten classics brought back in to print. Because it’s an English publisher, I struggle to find them in the USA, but sometimes I’m able to find the original edition and read it. I may some day have to order the rest from England. Here is the list of them to date, with the ones I’ve read in bold (links to thoughts on Rebecca Reads when available). If I decide not to read one of them, for whatever reason, I’ll cross it off the list.
