So I signed up for this last year, read one book that wasn’t even on my reading list, and then it all fell to pieces. However, I’m determined to have another punt at a subject I’m really interested in (and nearly studied after I left university). And it’s the same reading list as last time…
- Duncan Grant: A Biography by Frances Spalding
- The Underpainter by Jane Urquhart
- Dante Gabriel Rossetti: Painter and Poet by Jan Marsh
- Aubrey Beardsley: A Biography by Matthew Sturgis
- William and Lucy: The Other Rossettis by Angela Thirlwell
- The Holland Park Circle: Artists and Victorian Society by Caroline Dakers
Which puts me in the Fascinated category, so let’s see how that works out.

There are other Rossettis?
This looks like a fun challenge! I might read some of these, after you’ve read them and proclaimed them not rubbish. 😛

I signed up for this one as well, even though I didn’t finish it last year. Good luck.
