Marc, I'm in the same mode. I'm availing myself of Lucy Maud Montgomery's Anne and Emily books, and I've set myself the goal of reading the best of Anthony Trollope. Like you, I'm interspersing SF (and cozy mysteries) among these "classic" reads. Several years ago, I stumbled across a novel by Joanna Trollope --
The Choir -- and discovered that she is distantly related to Victorian novelist Anthony Trollope. Hence my interest in reading a few of his novels.
