Eileen O'Shaughnessy, Orwell's wife, was much more interesting than her husband but has largely been written out of his biography. There is a a great new book about her and her significant role in Orwell's writing, 'Wifedom' by Australian author Anna Funder.
Do you have to have read the first Passenger for Stella Maris? Thanks for the summary!

Question 7 by Richard Flanagan is one of the best books I’ve read this year - hard to classify, but well worth reading
I love Richard Flanagan. His Goulds Book Of Fish my fave of his.
