Entry: "Shadow of the Wind"

Shadow of the Wind is something special. In turns melodramatic, absurd, frightening, charming, foolish... No wasted words. A treat among treats. I finished it instead of doing anything else this weekend. So there was no cooking... but no worries.

Interesting side note: Shadow of the Wind was translated by Lucia Graves, daughter of Robert Graves. It was simply a joy to read, and with its mess of characters, emotions and moods, must have been interesting to translate.
