I'm pleased that readers who don't typically read historical fiction are willing to give the book a chance. <br /><br />During the writing process, I didn't see it as historical. I simply saw it as a story about two people searching for a sense of home. It wasn't until after publication that someone told me the book was historical fiction. The author was the last to know!Ann Weisgarberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11220698901977906665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4041753785577045651.post-23600084228036719562011-11-15T09:57:18.530-05:002011-11-15T09:57:18.530-05:00I just posted my review of this one.

Only a certain type of person could survive such a place. Visually, I could see that landscape. Would make a great movie.Tihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00926060806244061354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4041753785577045651.post-61808675158881910142011-11-14T19:46:07.691-05:002011-11-14T19:46:07.691-05:00This sounds wonderful and intriguing.
