![]() ![]() From the first words, I'm willing to follow her wherever she wants to take me. There's a certain quality about Tremain's writing, or about the way she tells her stories, or about the characters she creates or all of these put together, which I find very exciting. ![]() My first book by Rose Tremain, which was among my favourites of 2013, was Music & Silence. As far as expectations go, they were pretty high, as this novel first came to my attention because it had been shortlisted for the Booker Prize, and I had read very positive reviews for it, so it had been on my wishlist for a long time. This was my third five-star read out of 71 books read so far this year I don't hand out that rating very easily, and when I do, it's because the book has surpassed any expectation I may have had, made me want to start again right from the beginning as soon as I'd finished it, and opened up a universe which was somehow magical to me. ![]()
