Amazing book, and so well deserving of 5 full
teacups! Be prepared for a long night of sipping tea and melting into this
amazing world that Ms. MacGregor has created! I was just so taken by Theodora
and William's tale of such pain yet such amazing, deep love. There is no better
partner for Theodora than William, he's become her rock and the one she can
truly depend upon.
I also loved how the author brings in the theme of
aging through the character of Theodora's grandfather. He goes senile and she
gives up her whole life to help take care of him and keep him out of being
institutionalized, even being blamed for his death. She was there for him, as he
forgot her day by day more and more, his memories and life just slipped away
but she still loved him and stayed by his side. Back in the 1800's a person
suffering from what we know today as Alzheimer's would have been put in an
institution, cut-off from society and possibly faced some pretty brutal
treatments. So, bravo to the author for bringing in this amazing theme into
this tale and I just love Theodora and her love is truly remarkable!
