This is a wonderful book with just enough sadness and pain to be uplifting. Dara Horn takes us through a childhood of turmoil with sensitivity and grace. The fantasy work is particularly touching and leaves you wishing to believe.
The Thirteenth Tale
by Diane Setterfield
Beautifuly Written, Crafted, and Loved(2/24/2007)
This is such a wonderful book! It is pure bliss for the bibliophile and such joy for those who love great writing. The story is message and the words are the medium. I read a great deal of fiction and have been haunted and thrilled by this book. It does make one realize …more that great writing and story-telling are alive and well in this new century.(less)
