Kate Morton
“Even when they were very small Eliza had known that Sammy needed her more than she needed him, even before he caught the fever and was nearly lost to them. Something in his manner left him vulnerable. Other children had known it when they were small, grown-ups knew it now. They sensed somehow that he was not really one of them.
And he wasn't, he was a changeling. Eliza knew all about changelings. She'd read about them in the book of fairy tales that had sat for a time in the rag and bottle shop. There'd been pictures, too. Fairies and sprites who looked just like Sammy, with his fine strawberry hair, long ribbony limbs and round blue eyes. The way Mother told it, something had set Sammy apart from other children ever since he was a babe: an innocence, a stillness. She used to say that while Eliza had screwed up her little red face and howled for a feeding, Sammy had never cried. He used to lie in his drawer, listening, as if to beautiful music floating on the breeze that no one but he could hear.”
Kate Morton, The Forgotten Garden

Viviana Giorgi
“Ken fece un respiro di sollievo ricordandosi all’improvviso dei libri che aveva richiesto. Mai come in quel momento si era sentito tanto attratto dalla pace di una lettura solitaria. Jim aprì la porta e lui, rincuorato da quel pensiero, nel medesimo istante saltò fuori dal suo nascondiglio come un fauno dal bosco.
La donna, che se lo vide apparire davanti all’improvviso, ancora tutto scompigliato e rosso in viso a causa dell’esercizio fisico, dovette spaventarsi, perché prima lanciò un urletto sorpreso – e molto aggraziato, per la verità – poi i libri, che finirono in aria e quindi sul pavimento.
Anche Ken sussultò a quella reazione esagerata, lasciando al solo Jim l’onore di mantenere i nervi saldi.
Col cuore che gli batteva troppo forte nel petto, fissò la donna sbigottito.
Chi diavolo aveva mandato quel Jenkins a consegnargli i libri? Una pazza?
La giovane donna, mormorando delle scuse imbarazzate, si era nel frattempo inginocchiata a terra ed era impegnatissima a raccogliere i volumi caduti, la gonna blu aperta intorno a lei come una corolla. Ken non poteva vederle il viso, ma il collo sottile di lei e i suoi capelli neri come la notte, per quanto raccolti in uno severo chignon, lo indussero a domandarsi se il volto fosse altrettanto perfetto. E, senza esitare, fece qualcosa che il vecchio Ken non avrebbe mai osato fare: si chinò, afferrò la donna per le braccia, la sollevò e, senza delicatezza e con molta curiosità, scrutò negli occhi di lei.
Occhi così blu che mai prima in vita sua ne aveva visto di uguali.”
Viviana Giorgi, Un amore di inizio secolo: La traversata
