Madam, Will You Talk?
by Mary Stewart
The early Mary Stewart books are some of my favorite, favorite books. My favoritest <g> is Nine Coaches Waiting. Our library has several on audio books. The kids and I love them .. the foreign names, the accents, the visual pictures she paints! You are such a woman of refined and distinctive taste!!!
Yes, that is another outstanding one - Linda's despair at the end when she bemoans her lack of trust always makes me tearful. This Rough Magic is another of my favorites. And The Ivy Tree. And Airs Above the Ground. And the one in Greece that begins with the heroine saying, "Nothing ever happens to me..." I think that must be The Moon Spinners.
I remember loving "The Ivy Tree" as a girl, also "The Moon Spinners." The latter happens on Crete, no? I have this memory of it being on an island... I'll have to look these up sometime and re-read them...

This is probably one of my top ten all time favorite books, and I have worn through several copies.
