Occasionally I'll pick up a book because a particular person wrote it, but less so as I get older. That burned me a few times :) I find that the cover art often matches my feelings towards a book as a whole.

I do agree that the cover and the first line don't seem to agree in this one. I hope you enjoy it.

You're embarking on a wonderful, poignant story. You will find that this cover does do justice to part of the story and I hope you take the time to search out the old BBC series from the 1980's starring Jeremy Irons and Anthony Andrews <br />(I just did a quick google - you can see some of them on youtube now....just listening to the theme music has got me all a-dither again!!)<br />Lucky you - discovering this for the first time :-)Bronahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11110584237325026052noreply@blogger.com
