BOOK QUOTE:
“On most nights under the winter moon when we have made our camp, around us echo faint sounds of that other hidden world—the one of meadow and forest in the night. The melody of whip-poor-will, the cry of hunting owl, the scurrying rush of vole and chasing clown. It is as if some great razor scraped the life from this sheet of white-edged vellum, leaving only blank.”
"When I got my library card, that’s when my life began." — Rita Mae Brown.

"Stars flicker above, points of bright ice in a dark river. I pull a heavy sheepskin around my legs and stretch my feet towards the fire. Despite the cold, Liam plays his lute, the sound whistling through the night. Soon my eyes are heavy, my head nodding."

"The spirit moves the men, just as it moves the wing’d creatures and rough beasts. I think of our first parents – Adam and Eve – as they staggered away from the known world, thrust out of the garden by an avenging angel. We are at the edge of the village commons now. This is the point we cannot turn back. I am already weary, but I will find who did this, I will know the truth."
