Historical Fiction Picks: 20th Century Tales
Beth Wood, a local librarian, curates a list of popular historical fiction novels set in the 20th century, spanning from the 1910s to the 1950s. These stories, set in Hollywood, London, New York, and the Belgian Congo, are brought to life by well-loved authors. Beth uses Fantastic Fiction website for recommendations, which allows for easy discovery of new reads. The list includes works by award-winning and bestselling authors who blend real history with fiction, capturing the glamour of old Hollywood, wartime tensions, and post-war changes. The books cover a range of topics, from women in power to civil wars, and upcoming releases keep the list current. Contact Beth Wood at Fort Vancouver Regional Libraries for more picks or questions.
