"I've long been impressed with Ms. Morris' writing: her versatility, her range, her ability to touch the humanity in all her novels. Ever Rest is powerful, and so, so sad. Is there hope? I believe she says Yes, but it won't be an easy road. It will be"

"Paftoo is a hero to root for, and what an amazing description of this last countryside estate!
Roz Morris' tale of Paftoo's struggle to recover his memories and his former acquaintances reminded me of the best of Ray Bradbury, H.G. Wells, Kurt Vonneg" Read more of this review » |

“I had been working hard at my book; it was one of those rare days of authorship when everything seemed to go right; the words flowed unbidden from my pen, and the time had passed unheeded, so that it was a shock to realise that I had been writing for some six hours.”

“For these beings, fall is ever the normal season, the only weather, there be no choice beyond. Where do they come from? The dust. Where do they go? The grave. Does blood stir their veins? No: the night wind. What ticks in their head? The worm. What speaks from their mouth? The toad. What sees from their eye? The snake. What hears with their ear? The abyss between the stars. They sift the human storm for souls, eat flesh of reason, fill tombs with sinners. They frenzy forth....Such are the autumn people.”

“By reading the writings of the most interesting minds in history, we meditate with our own minds and theirs as well. This is to me is a miracle.”

Easy to miss Goodreads messages. It's not the easiest platform. Hope the sun is shining there in Cagliari - it is in London.Roz
