"Sacred Spaces" is beautiful .There are rich photos of homes
from the inside to the outside. It is a very different book. Sixteen
people are interviewed. The interviews are a weaving of why their home
is there castle. Each person is telling their story from a different
location.. One true story will make an artist excited. The home is in
Arles. When I see that name, I can only think of Vincent Van Gogh. My
eyes grow wider as I relive his life through another person's thoughts.
The book is also is about how a trial or struggle brought them to the
place where they are today.. It is a book of sharing. Through seeing
inside their homes and r hearing about their pain and victories, you can
begin to feel and remember serendipitous moments at your address.
Fairytale of New York by Zor Folbigg
Charlie is leaving Lancashire for New York. It is her first time visiting there. She is so excited. In her shoes, I would feel the same way. The trip on the plane goes well. Everything is great until she figures it out. Harry Taylor is not there to meet her. It is such a horrible feeling to experience what is happening to her. She spends hours at the airport and find she does not have enough information with her. The story goes on. Although I have never had this experience, I almost feel her pain. It is a wonderful book. We definitely learn about Charlie.When all we want to know is where is Harry. Walking this woman back and forth as she tries to think what to tell her parents, etc. leaves the heart pumping faster and faster. You really feel like crying for her. This is not the way I pictured her New York Christmas. By the way, Lancashire is near London.
