Lily-Josephine had a talent for love. Wilful, enchanting and passionate, she was the centre of a charmed universe - until her father married again. One summer evening, in 1941, Lily ran from her jealous stepmother. She escaped to find sanctuary but, in Randalls, she discovered a love far greater than any she had ever known.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A true contender for Cinderella's fairytale...,
By Holly (Gold Coast, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lily-Josephine (Audio Cassette)
"Lily Josephine" is a dazzling and beautiful piece of work, delicately woven together by the brilliant story teller that Kate Saunders is. As transfixing as she sounds, Lily Josephine was named after the story of Joseph in the Bible and the faces of the Lilies on the River Nile that would turn their faces up to Joseph as if he were the sun... Centralising around this intoxicating character forms a story of the lives Lily-Jospehine affected when she was alive and the generations she continued to influence long after her untimely death. I loved this story; for the passion it stirred in me, the betrayal it cast upon me, the anger it found in me and the wonder it awoke in me. In every quite minute I could find, I dove into the pages of Kate Saunders masterpiece and lost myself in Lily's world of love and intrigue. This book is a rare find...a sweeping tale of passion, betrayal, destiny and what becomes of those who truly do follow their hearts. An enthralling read for a quiet day, a most loyal companion to your cup of something and a saga that will most certainly leave your mind and heart aching for more. As I said, it really is a contender for Cinderella's fairytale...
