Murmurations by Carol Lefevre

lowlandsbeach's review against another edition

3.0

Gothic feel. The sense of place and sense of time lacked authenticity for me. Presumably set somewhere in UK. But with a Mediterranean climate(?) Tomatoes growing in front yard? Native shrubs , succulents and oranges and lemons? A children's home run in a convent on an island where mothers left their newborns? Which decades is plot taking place in? Nature writing seemed inauthentic, woodcutters cottage with British woodland mosses?

5.0

The intertwining of people in this book really was beautifully done, even though I found it a little hard to keep up at the beginning and had to keep turning back to figure out the connections.

I could not put it down though and polished it off on this hot (38c) day in front of the aircon with the dog at my side.

These stories examine character, and were enjoyable to read. I suspect they will be fairly forgettable though.
