a book review on I capture the castle
Answers
Answer:
Dodie Smith's novel I Capture the Castle is a journey through the mind of a young writer as she attempts to chronicle her daily life. Seventeen-year-old Cassandra Mortmain has recently learned to speed-write, and she decides to work on her writing skills by describing the actions and conversations
Answer:
I really loved this book. Cassandra Mortmain is the next -to-youngest daughter of a formerly celebrated author,living in not genteel poverty in a ruined Suffolk castle, prior to World War 2. She has an eccentric pagan stepmother, called Topaz, an unhappy elder sister; Rose.A younger brother,Thomas,13; and a live in employee/brother who loves her. I Capture the Castle covers six months in which Cassandra practices speed writing; and captures her life after the American heirs to the landlord claim their inheritance. This book never felt contrived; it has an innocence not found often. Author Dodie is more well known for 101 Dalmatians.
