This novel ticked several boxes for me. It is set in Walberswick on the Suffolk coast - an area which I am familiar with. I'm not particularly knowledgeable about architecture but I was aware of the work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh and reading this book made me want to find out more.

Passing on to fellow book crosser Daffodil-2 when we meet up today.

Given to me today by my friend Snoopy56 when we met for lunch. Looks interesting and is set locally so I look forward to reading it.

REVIEW:- I did read a few chapters of this book but it didn't really grab me so I then skimmed it to the end.

This book was left at Salthouse on a bench on the coast road, quite close to the famous Cookies Crab Shop.

I already have books travelling in many countries around the world-a list can be found on my bookcrossing profile.

When re-releasing this book please be aware that airports are not a good place to leave books unless they have a specific book exchange shelf or area, due to security problems, so they may well just be disposed of. Also charity shops may well discard books that have been labelled in any way and they mostly chose only the books in the very best condition
to place on their shelves and discard the rest-so another bad release option.

Not much of a story to this. Uncertain how factual references to Rennie Ma kintosh's life occurrences are. Its been an rffort to read to the end. There is some good use of imagery. Soutbwold and its surroundi g area are known to me so this element evokes memories .
