Burning Bright by Tracy Chevalier

2.0

Only reached page 50 before I decided to give this one up--the fact that another Sarah Ruhl play arrived from the library settled it for me. Unfortunately I did not feel drawn into this world the way I did with "Remarkable Creatures" and I wonder if it's due to the distanced and almost superficially omniscient narration? I think telling it from Jem's or even switching among characters, but all in the first person, would have been more effective and sincere. Oh well.
