Can Total Beauty Totally Heal or is it a Torment?
Rose clasped her hands tight round her knees. How passionately she longed to be important to somebody again, – not important on platforms, not important as an asset in an organisation, but privately important, just to one other person, quite privately, nobody else to know or notice. It didn't seem much to ask in a world, so crowded with people, just to have one of them, only one out of all the millions, to oneself. Somebody who needed one, who thought of one, who was eager to come to one – oh, oh, how dreadfully one wanted to be precious!
Dearest bookish friends,
I am always surprised afresh at new insights on re-reads. This being my fourth or fifth of The Enchanted April I am seeing further aspects of the character’s journeys and overarching theme, are you? Although I remain as infuriated with Mellersh as ever! 😅
I’m looking forward to sharing and discussing our takeaways on this thought provoking and at times very funny book.
Mark the diary, check your time zone and I’ll see you there, see the link below.
