This review is from: Leaning in the Wind: A Novel (Hardcover)
Edwin Parsier, a successful young lawyer and critically acclaimed poet, meets pretty and articulate Lisa Mullar on board a luxury liner traveling from England the America in the 1950s. Parsier returns to England, marries, rasies a family, prospers. Aston and Shirley Hart are his neighbors, owners of a fabulous old historic estate, "Woods End." Hart commutes to East Africa where he becomes advisor to Idi Amin and comes under a voodoo curse which kills Shirley. Hart winds up marrying Lisa and bringing her to live at "Woods End."It's a sensitive story about human relationships told with wit and a little black magic thrown in to twist things up a bit. Characters are sophisticated and interesting. The story moves quickly to a fascinating end. |
