I enjoyed the style of writing; it is quite rare that I come by books that have been writted in the present tense, and for some time after I closed the book I found my own inner monologue going on in the present instead of the normal past tense. I found that some chapters had a particularly interesting narrative monologue with events being first recounted from the point of view of Zuana and then from the point of view of Serafina, and the transition between the two was skillfully conducted. Thank you once again for writing such a beautiful novel! Dear Ms. Dunant,

I found the detail about convent life and especially the herbalism very interesting. I was hoping, though, that Zuana would escape and work in that woman's apothecary!

Currently in Nashville wondering if that cloud above the city is really volcanic ash. if this were the 16th century they would think it was God"s way of saving the planet.Come to think of it, that is not such a bad reading given how few planes are up there.
