Lovely story but there are dropped plot threads that must be by design although I can’t imagine how it helps the novel. Unnecessarily cryptic. Reader is LibriVox best.
Denise Vilim
Compelling story displaying the author's perspicacity, for the time period in which it was written, into human motives and behaviors. Great narration overall.
another perfect reading by Simon Evers
