"Woven around the pursuits of the energetic spirits and erudite scholars of the University of St. John and the Holy Ghost, this dazzling trilogy of novels lures the reader into a world of mysticism, historical allusion, and gothic fantasy that could only be the invention of the inimitable Robertson Davies."

I love, love, love this! It's now my favorite Robertson Davies, by far. It has everything and it's beautiful.

This is on its way to rooshill in California as a surprise RABCK...

Thank you so much! I put some Davies' books on my wishlist at the recommendation of another 'crosser quite some time ago. I can't wait to get into these - no, wait, yes, I can (sigh)because I have to. :) I've got to get several score out the door before I get to read any new stuff. It'll snuggle up on Mt. TBR for a while, but I'm intrigued, so it'll be near the top of the list when I get back to "cuz I feel like it" reading.

Sigh...here's a funny thing. I was just thinking, "OK, I'll journal this and send it on. The first book in the volume was OK, but I really don't know if it's worth continuing on with the next two. I have so many books and so little leisure time anymore." Then I came to journal and read how much the previous journaller "love, love, love"[d] it, and I'm having second thoughts. Perhaps I'll give it a second chance today and see if it grabs me.
