102. Margaret Kennedy — Troy Chimneys
We think both Freud and Jane Austen might approve of one-time bestselling novelist and Austen biographer Margaret Kennedy’s delightfully clever 1953 historical novel, Troy Chimneys. Recently republished by McNally Editions, it’s written in the Regency style and from the perspective of a male hero with dueling personalities.
