It is such a pleasure to read Virginia Woolf’s beautiful prose.
“The sails flapped over their heads. The water chuckled and slapped the sides of the boat, which drowsed motionless in the sun. Now and then the sails rippled with a little breeze in them, but the ripple ran over them and ceased.”

There is beauty in the sparing prose of Kári Gíslason, reflective of the stark landscapes and the harsh realities of medieval life in Iceland's Westfjords.
There is no fluff, just an honest retelling of the events preserved in The Saga of Gisli and Eyrbyggia Saga (The Saga of the People of Eyri).

You know you are in the hands of a master storyteller when you feel a rising sense of dread for the characters with each page turned. Tony Birch, a Fitzroy Blak, is one such author.
'The White Girl' is beautifully written. You just want Odette & her grand-daughter Sissy, to find a safe haven... 💙📚
