Luke (korrick) | 2004 comments The Painted Alphabet, Diana Darling, 1991, Indonesia (United States), NOVEL/FOLKTALE

"...In The Painted Alphabet, we see that evil and good are not always clearly defined—there are philosophical paradoxes throughout. Diana Darling's writing illuminates the importance of the spirit world in the daily life of the Balinese, and immerses the reader in the smells, sounds and beauty of Bali."

(H.S., p. 188)
