So we have a Shakespeare themed challenge for March. A play and a novel inspired by the play. Feel free to read either or both.
King Lear by William Shakespeare
A Thousand Acres by Jane Smiley
In Idaho, Larry Cook announces that he will turn his farm over to his three daughters...
Another novel suggested and also inspired by King Lear is Wise Children by Angela Carter if anyone gets into the theme.
