Of the many liberties John Milton took in writing Paradise Lost, his 1667 epic poem on Adam and Eve’s expulsion from Eden, the most delightful and underrated are his efforts to imagine daily life in Paradise before the Fall. ![]() Joe Moshenska: Making Darkness Light: A Life of John Milton Nicholas McDowell: Poet of Revolution: The Making of John Milton Harrison: Coming To: Consciousness and Natality in Early Modern England ![]() ![]() Katie Kadue: Domestic Georgic: Labors of Preservation from Rabelais to Milton ![]() 6/26/2023 0 Comments Flame and Ember by M.A. Nichols![]() ![]() Genre: Children’s Books/Growing Up & Facts of Life/Illness/Special Needs It isn’t a redo of an Austen plotline, and I loved the references to Austen’s writing throughout, along with main character Emma’s struggle to set aside the unrealistic expectation of finding a Mr. However, I was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed this story.
