5.0 The Winter Vault

Oh, the poetry of Anne Michaels' writing. I could hardly bear to finish this book. Beauty, love, history, truth, lies, creation, destruction, humans, nature. This novel is filled with all this and more.

I do love an immaculate hardback with a ribbon book-mark, especially if I caught it at the one-penny mark.First sentence - Generators floodlit the temple. Some beautiful ideas and sumptuous language but just a little too d(r)ippy/far out for comfort and it covers too much ground without any defining...

3.0 The Winter Vault
text The Winter Vault
This probably falls between a 3 and a 4 star rating for me. It is just a gorgeously written book and for 3/4 of the way I was captivated, but then my interested started to wane a bit and I found it hard to get through the last 1/4th.
