![]() ![]() I do have to say that my knowledge of the Pre-Raphaelites and their circle added to my understanding and enjoyment of this book. This book is indeed a tapestry, weaving together not only different time periods, but also offering cameo appearances of artists, authors, music, and folklore from days gone by. It is a modern myth that explores the relationship between the muse and the artist. ![]() I think Mortal Love can best be described as a fairy tale for adult readers. It is unique and yet, like Pre-Raphaelite art, it is not for everyone. I enjoyed it, realizing early on that the story was told in an artistic, disjointed way that appealed to me. It is a story with many layers and a narrative that switches between time periods. ![]() And I know I will not hesitate to devour it again, its hold over me is that strong. I've also posted this review at my website ![]()
