The Enchanted April

 

The Enchanted AprilThe Enchanted April by Elizabeth von Arnim
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I was surprised. I expected this book to be about travel in Italy. Instead, it was all about human nature, relationships, and the influence for good or bad we can be upon one another. There are captivating descriptions of the landscape and foliage, but the ladies never really leave the castle they have rented for their vacation. All of the “action” takes place right there. Okay, so there is no action. But there is certainly conversation and thought-provoking interchange between the characters. We really can have profound influence on each other is my takeaway.
