Two very odd books, actually. Fairly slender, they purported to be reproductions of an ongoing correspondence between Griffin, a London artist, and Sabine, a stamp designer on a remote Pacific island nation.

In the third book, who knows what happens? Maybe the mysteries are resolved, maybe they deepen. In fact, there is a second trilogy along the same lines, so obviously there is more to the tale than we discover in the first two books. (More...

Read this one tonight too (I arrived at the bus exchange only a few minutes after my bus had left, so I had nearly an hour to read while waiting for the next one).

Cliff-hangers are not fair!!!
