Book excerpt: "Greifenstein" by F. Marion Crawford While primarily known for his novels set in Italy, this book takes readers to Germany, instead. Opening with Frau von Sigmundskron who is concerned with her daughter, Hilda's, prospects of marriage, the book delves into the banalities of romance and domesticity with a fun and quirky air. Poverty, classism, and other socio-political topics are cunningly addressed in a way that will keep readers thinking while they fall into the book.
