I feel that Marcia Willett is struggling to start his novels but gradually we made history and we are caught in this very special atmosphere to the author. Small coffee mugs of tea, grilled bacon, long walks in the mysterious moor, we sometimes want to be in the shoes of the characters of the novel. Marcia Willett has a special gift to describe the nature, you want to get lost in the paths in the grass and wildflowers, to sit under a tree and listen to the birds sing. This is a beautiful novel with a terribly endearing heroine. The secondary characters also have very interesting personalities. A very enjoyable read.
