More Miracle Than Bird
More Miracle Than Bird | Alice Miller
10 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
On the eve of World War I, twenty-one-year-old Georgie Hyde-Lees--on her own for the first time--is introduced to the acclaimed poet W. B. Yeats at a soire in London. Although Yeats is famously eccentric and many years her senior, Georgie is drawn to him, and when he extends a cryptic invitation to a secret society, her life is forever changed. A shadow falls over London as zeppelins stalk overhead and bombs bloom against the skyline. Amidst the chaos, Georgie finds purpose tending to injured soldiers in a makeshift hospital, befriending the wounded and heartbroken Lieutenant Pike, who might need more from her than she is able to give. At night with Yeats, she escapes these realities into an even darker world, becoming immersed in The Order, a clandestine society where ritual, magic, and the conjuring of spirits is practiced and pursued. As forces--both of this world and the next--pull Yeats and Georgie closer together and then apart again, Georgie uncovers a secret that threatens to undo it all. In bright, commanding prose debut author Alice Miller illuminates the fascinating and unforgettable courtship of Georgie Hyde-Lees and W. B. Yeats. A sweeping tale of faith and love, lost and found and fought for, More Miracle than Bird ingeniously captures the moments--both large and small--on which the fate of whole lives and countries hinge.

Mehso-so

Although there are great moments of language and imagery here, I found the plot a bit boring. Specifically, I was much more interested in the otherworldly aspects than the more detailed romance, and wished these would have been explored in greater depth. It is possible that I‘m just not the right audience for this book, though.

I don‘t have any other May releases so I‘m moving on to my June ARC pile. I have not read any of these so there will be minimal to no commentary. This #JuneARC will be released 6/2.
