It's a love letter to the New York City in the Tammany Hall days. Time travel, an artist, a romance. Aaaaaah. <br /><br />Also Winter's Tale, anything by Thomas Hardy, Virginia Woolf, Pablo Neruda, plus any poets I know personally. Thanks for asking!

I have read it again and again and find something new to love each time. The best part is that it is a trilogy - the second is "Wise Man's Fear" but the third has not yet been published. <br /><br />Diana Terrill Clark/DominoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1427303902639298441.post-7736008741470660572011-12-04T15:41:36.171-05:002011-12-04T15:41:36.171-05:00Rosamunde Pilcher's books, The Shell Seekers a...Rosamunde Pilcher's books, The Shell Seekers and Empty House are two fiction books that I have reread more that once!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17254228974989688426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1427303902639298441.post-31865720974467956342011-12-04T14:46:43.994-05:002011-12-04T14:46:43.994-05:00Old favourites.
