“Different” Is a Very Good Word: Our Review of A FAIR BARBARIAN (1880)

For the first time on this podcast, we are talking about a book that was written in direct response to a book we previously reviewed! Whether or not you’re a fans of Henry James’ 1878 short story Daisy Miller, you’ll want to tune in to Amy and Jacinta’s review of A Fair Barbarian, written in 1880 by Frances Hodgson Burnett as a direct response to Daisy. Plus this month’s book has connections to another story from the Gibson Girl archives, so we’re making all kinds of historic connections in this all-new episode!
