Review: Drew me in slowly but fully - I knew very little about this book or the author before I started it. I was looking for a book set in Scotland, (for a reading challenge) and I am interested in stories about women who were accused of witchcraft. For the first 50 pages or so, I thought I might not finish the book, but the further I got, the more I was drawn into the story. Fletcher’s descriptions were so very vivid that the dramatic landscape and the people came alive. There was such reverence for nature in Corag’s voice that I became more aware of the beauty around me as I read. The book was also a powerful reminder of the influence we can have on one another, even in relatively brief encounters. Finally, I listened to most of this book on audio, and I found both narrators excellent.
Review: Lyrical and Poetic - I loved this book. Why did I wait so long to read it? 1692, Corrag an accused witchcraft is waiting her fate in a Scotland prison. She tells her story to Charles Leslie an Irish propagandist. She is the only person who knows in great detail what happened that frightful day. She is accused of witchcraft because of her actions. This story is told with beautiful lyrical and poetic prose. The descriptions of the Scottish highlands are breathtaking. Corrag is a gentle sole who has learned how to heal with herbs from her mother Cora. She is forced to leave her mother who will be burned at the stake for witchcraft and flees to the Scottish highlands. She befriends the Macdonald clan and warns them that something bad is going to happen. She is arrested and charged with witchcraft. She tells her story to Charles, who believes at first she should be executed, but as Corrag tells her story. He sees what a beautiful person she really is. I didn’t want this book to end. It is a captivating story, one that will stay with you long after you read it.
