There is a little of everything as far as context and the art is rich and inviting. A treasure Another stunning book from Bantock. One of the best things about this series is the way he manages to convey the sense that the reader has entered a complete world. We only hear snippets about and from Matthew and Isabella, but we know that they have full, complex lives outside of the small tidbits they reveal in their letters. This is a beautiful work, and one in which the art and the words blend to perfection. My first Nick Bantock novel, although others have been urging me to read his books for years. This isn't the first in the series, so it probably didn't make as much sense to me as it would have if I had read the others first, but it was gorgeous and intriguing nonetheless. It's also marvelously tactile, something that one doesn't often get in books intended for adults. Magical, mysterious, and lovely. no reviews | add a review
