The writing in this novel definitely reflects the author's training in art and photography.  Her descriptions are so rich and well-drawn that you can see, hear, smell and feel what she is describing.  You can feel the sun on your skin and the beetle that just landed on your arm, and you know just what is like to slip into the lake for a swim in the warm water.I loved the story and the ties to Druidism, Paganism and earth magic.  I must admit that Brittany is now on my list of places I must visit - it sounds absolutely delightful!  I guess I'll have to brush up on my French!  I've stayed with friends in eastern England in a house that sounds very like the longhouse in the novel, so the book brought back fond memories of that holiday.
