This vintage 1960s Donald Brooks linen day dress features a very-1960s mod silhouette. It has a split neckline, with a unique overlay creating the look of a belt, hitting at an empire waist height. The bodice is a drop-waist, and the skirt is equally unique, featuring deep pleats in the front and sides, and slit pockets. The idea of the belt continues to the back, with an oversized button detail. The heavy linen fabric has an amazing structure to it, and is extremely breathable and lightweight despite this. No fiber contents are listed but feels like 100% linen. (Please note: I know for a fact that dress is Donald Brooks but it unfortunately lost its tag. It is priced accordingly. I will share below some Donald Brooks designs from this era with similar design/construction.)

Measurements: This will best fit a size Small or Medium; shown unpinned on a size X-Small and it is a bit oversized but still works. Please refer to below measurements to be sure.

Chest: 36"
Waist: 31"
Length: about 36.75" from shoulder to hem

Very funny! Recommended!
Format: Paperback
A wonderful example of 18th century humor as Fielding relates the adventures of an innocent young man often pursued by predatory women- a reversal of the usual situation. The elegant prose enhances the humor. The downside is the turgid introduction which is a barrier to one’s enjoyment of the story.

Pamela reimagined
Format: Kindle
Having just read (and enjoyed) Samuel Richardson’s Pamela, Shamela cleverly and wickedly reimagines that novel, while compressing the original’s 500 pages into 30 or so. Shamela the main character is a conniving and loose woman, a master manipulator who spends down her husband’s fortune while cuckolding him. She is as different from Richardson’s heroine Pamela as the town of Pottersville is from Bedford Falls ( the latter is Jimmy Stewart’s idyllic home in the movie It’s a wonderful Life, and the former is the dystopian place it would have been without Stewart.) Shamela reminded me of Frank Capra’s movie, where characters notable for their decency and kindness are transformed into their opposites, in this case for satirical purposes. Shamela can only be enjoyed after reading Richardson first and even in the right order it is something of a guilty pleasure.

Four Stars
Format: Paperback
Good for insights into mid-eighteenth century society in England. Some scenes improbable, some hilarious. Overall very good.

Necessary and humorous companion to Pamela
Format: Kindle
After reading Richardson’s novel Pamela, this satire gives at least some perspective to the story as the “other side of the coin” and perhaps tempers the almost unbelievable virtue displayed in Pamela. However, reading these in 2018 with perspective of 250 years of history available to us, they are a good reminder that it’s still a dog eat dog world, as seen through the #metoo movement of 2017. Men in power abusing sex, other men in power blaming women as gold-diggers. Maybe now this ages old tale gets a new ending?

Old and good
Format: Paperback
Not sure how I should apply adjectives to a book that made history. The style belongs to a bygone era; Shamela is fun because it is a satire, and not intended to be great literature.
