The Literary Clinic: Merivel: A Man of His Time
http://theliteraryclinic.blogspot.com/2013/07/merivel-man-of-his-time.html
Books, Bibliography and Bibliotherapy. Sunday, 21 July 2013. Merivel: A Man of His Time. It's been a while since I've had time for reading, and a long while since I've read any books that have inspired me to blog - but this one definitely deserves some praise. Rose Tremain's novel is a sequel to the prize-winning Restoration. But it can be read as a stand alone book: it's been years since I read Restoration. But this didn't detract at all from the reading experience. Which shows the imagery progress from...

The Literary Clinic: Dreaming in Books
http://theliteraryclinic.blogspot.com/2015/03/dreaming-in-books.html
Books, Bibliography and Bibliotherapy. Thursday, 5 March 2015. It's March. It's 2015. And well into my sabbatical, I am finally making some time to get back to this blog. Which, as I flick back through previous posts, is a good thing for personal bibliotherapeutic outcomes, just like making more time for fresh air and walks every day. What's helped nudge me back to this space? Andrew Piper's Dreaming in Books: The Making of the Bibliographic Imagination in the Romantic Age. E project that I'm involved in...

Books, Bibliography and Bibliotherapy. Friday, 7 December 2012. It's cold. And windy. And wet. It's also that point in the term when everyone seems tired, fractious, and run down. Still a little while to go until Christmas, but the cheer is not quite in sight - so much to do before it comes, and no time to do it! This is the perfect point for some bibliotherapy, so here are some thoughts:. 1 Buy some books! Today Penguin are offering 50% off all books on their website. Which was a no-brainer buy for me!
