In a story filled with puzzling mysteries, loyalty, persistence, even danger, Wobbly Barstool gives us a good, old-fashioned life-affirming story, unlike much of the lurid prose passing for literature these days. She urges us to work toward a world of cooperation among people and animals, and even gently promotes vegetarianism. Through her characters she touts the benefits of an amiable, simple life, appreciative of nature, strong friendships, and family connections based on love rather than social ambition. A fun-loving teetotaling sugar-avoiding vegan Cytogenetic Technologist, Jane Lowy is the author of WOBBLY BARSTOOL, WIGGLY BARSTOOL and TIPPI BARSTOOL. Jane Lowy, in her first book, has written a charming, carefully and cleverly crafted, lighthearted yet powerful Victorian-era literary novel that will both entertain and deeply move its audience. (A large cast of other characters also navigate the wending paths of life's vicissitudes.) Wobbly strives to broaden his worldliness, but for this ingenuous young man with rural roots, seeking his true love's hand is of course severely hampered by the young woman's social-climbing mother, who would sooner die than see her daughter marry anyone less than a peer of the realm. Wobbly Barstool is an innocent, yet far from simple, young fellow growing up on a 19th century English farm, who spends a number of years faithfully pursuing his love at first sight, the reluctant socialite from London, Prunella Baddonschilde.
Wobbly Barstool is not a rickety piece of pub furniture.
