Something...
Something is in the air/Something is on the wing/I'm strangely calm, even elated in a sense/Sometimes the currents of the wind blow strangely.
Book Review - "The Little French Bistro" by Nina George
Marianne is a sixty year old woman who has been married for forty-one years to a man who thinks no more of her, her dreams and desires than he does of how the water flows from the tap.
Marianne continually and fervently hoped and believed that her life would change for the better; that she would eventually be loved and seen.
After suffering in silence for so long, she decides it's far too painful to go on, so she decided on suicide. Such begins this lyrical, magical story of romance, redemption and rediscovery. This novel is about women, but is one that should also be read by men who want to fully love their women in the way that love is meant to be manifested.
After Marianne's suicide attempt is foiled by a Parisian tramp, she discovers a small rendering of a village that lodges in her heart and sets out for Kerdruc, in Brittany, France; running away from her unhappy life.
This novel is full of richness of spirit, heart and soul; and descriptions of mouth-watering fare and tasty drink has you searching your cupboards.
There are many, many kernels of wisdom and thought provoking lines set down by the author and I can hardly wait to read the predecessor to this novel.
Happy reading and bon chance!
