I am enjoying the pointed editing by a previous reader. I don‘t condone writing in library books, but I admit I am enjoying seeing an other reader catch some editing mistakes!
Went to the library & checked out a few mysteries hoping to get me reading. Now I am relaxing in my “ reading” loveseat & enjoying wine & cheese. Happy Friday!!!#FridayHappyReadingHour

My knowledge of Welsh is sufficient to help me appreciate the beauty of the poetry. I don‘t know enough to pick out many words (maybe I would have done a tiny bit better with modern Welsh), but it was fun to recognize a word here and there! Mostly I enjoyed the earliest known reference to King Arthur.
pickA short, quiet novel that shows life on a small, fictional (but historically based) island off the coast of Wales. Set as WWII looms on the horizon, the book is able to touch upon a remote village‘s isolation from (& its responsibility to?) the broader world. As well as individuals‘ relationships with what is provided and/or prevented by the distance.
Several flavors of audacity tied to imperialism & classism are also on full display.
