But not for a while as I must clear some books from tbr piles first.riverwillowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13644090856726589608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8183586950838177221.post-35520410954706269952008-01-28T17:33:00.000+00:002008-01-28T17:33:00.000+00:00I love this book and I agree with you that Garner ...I love this book and I agree with you that Garner is vastly under-rated. I think that adults in general tend to speed read his work and miss the subtleties that it contains. Have you read his 'Stone Book'?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8183586950838177221.post-62986728058238368932008-01-27T22:07:00.000+00:002008-01-27T22:07:00.000+00:00I have a feeling one of the teens in it committed ...I have a feeling one of the teens in it committed suicide in real life not long after the programme. It encouraged me to buy The Mabdignonono -er, book of Welsh legends on one of which it was based.<BR/><BR/>Also hope you enjoy These Old Shades - DD's favourite Heyer and pretty high up my list.

It was adapted by Garner himself and apparently emphasised the relationship between the three teenagers, maybe it will be released on DVD at some point.riverwillowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13644090856726589608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8183586950838177221.post-36608388142884261142008-01-27T10:25:00.000+00:002008-01-27T10:25:00.000+00:00This is one of my favourite books and was a terrif...This is one of my favourite books and was a terrific tv series I think in the 70s. Really really scary and sad - must read again!brunhildehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12487111920596397708noreply@blogger.com
