Thanks to whoever recommended Geoffrey Trease... and why haven't I ever
heard of him before...?
I shot through _Snared Nightingale_ today, and was utterly charmed. The
writing manages to be both simple and gorgeous, the first-person
narrator's voice strong. It does seem to end one chapter too soon -- I
wanted a codicil, although the opening scene does supply something of
the sort. It'll be interesting to compare-and-contrast the next title,
which is third person.
The Minneapolis Public Library has quite a few of his older titles, in
the downtown branch. After that, it's off to the on-line purveyors.
Ta, L.
