Reading Pilgrimage website

[Neglectedbooks]

A group of readers around the world have been reading Pilgrimage during 2022.

To help them and others taking on the challenge of working through Dorothy Richardson's masterpiece, I have set up https://readingpilgrimage.com (ReadingPilgrimage.com), which provides introductions, plot summaries, character lists, contemporary reviews, and other information related to Pilgrimage and Richardson.

Amazing! Thank you! I am going to do a re read next year, so will definitely be using these resources.

Delighted to help out. Now ... if I could just get VMC to go back to publishing the four-volume set in the US and other non-Commonwealth countries.

I know! I am remaining hopeful that OUP will get out a set once they have published the big academic series of hers they are (slowly!) producing. It is just extraordinary to me that a writer of her genius, and her importance in the development of the novel, remains barely in print. I really do think she belongs on the level with Woolf, Joyce, Proust etc

I've been rereading this year and thought the site was a brilliant resource, and enjoyed the YouTube pieces. I'm finishing the final volume but pausing to finish some other things.

According to Prof. Scott McCracken, the director of the Oxford Edition series, the next volumes will be her letters with the rest of Pilgrimage to follow after that. So, we need to get a different publisher interested in bringing out the novel in a trade edition. My hope is to get VMC to take up the cause, but I'm not getting any traction so far.
