When you want to be somewhere else
This book will take you away. Not somewhere particularly pleasant -- the main character, Georgina, is laying in a ravine after driving off the road on the way to see the Queen (who she has always loved and shares a birthday with). but Frances Itani's prose makes change of setting unnecessary. As she lays waiting to be rescued, Georgina ruminates on a well lived life. It is a beautifully written book.
