Thank you so much for this. I have just read Enlightenment as I work through the Booker Longlist. I loved it and you have put into words what I thought and why I loved it.
Not everyone has had this response to the book which shows me that we are all different, but I think Enlightenment is a wonderful work and I will continue to champion it.
Thanks for the recommendation--will check it out. I really liked The Essex Serpent. Shame that this new work seems to not be receiving much anticipatory buzz--I only became aware of it because of your clip.
Thank you for the recommendation. It sounds interesting and strangely calming! Will check it out. Did you realise that Wessex (West Sussex) was an Anglo-Saxon Kingdom which ended up squished by one of the other Kingdoms during the Middle Ages battles.

Just finished Enlightenment & I fully agree with you!!! This will stay with me for quite awhile. It really landed with me. Wow!
So happy to hear that you had a great experience with it.
Read Enlightenment after Booker list here in Illinois. Your description is beautiful and apt.
You're very kind. That book resonated deeply with me and it makes me happy to know others feel the same.
This sounds great. Thank you,
It really is.
Thanks for fixing the audio, by the way. Much better now! 🙂
Good to hear!
Thanks for the review! Will check it out.
Let me know if you like it.

Word of mouth recommendations > anticipatory buzz!

Yes, I grew up in Middlesex so I'm down with all the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms that don't really exist anymore.
