Can you find this one? It's not quite in plain view.
I read this one when it came out in paperback, and have read all of her books s If you enjoy Anne Rivers Siddons, or Pat Conroy, you'll definitely like reading Dorothea Benton Frank's delicious fiction set in the low country of South Carolina. Sullivan's Island, the first of six novels in the Low Country series tells a story of one woman's search for truth, after she left an unfaithful husband, and unpleasant life and returned to her childhood roots.
I've read the first two, and I'm looking for more.
Dorothea Benton Frank is one of my favorite authors. I think Plantation was one of her best, although Sullivans Island is certainly a wonderful read. I'm glad you enjoyed the book.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any of this author's work, but it does sound like a perfect vacation book.
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of her, but this sounds a bit tempting.
ReplyDeleteI must say though that these glimpses of your bookshelves make me so, so, so jealous...lol
I've never read any of Frank's works; I usually am more of a clasics reader. Speaking of which, that's what mine is this week. :)
ReplyDeleteI read SULLIVAN'S ISLAND years ago and loved it. I don't know why I haven't gotten around to reading more by this author. I think I even have one or two of her books in my TBR pile!
