lliira: Fang from FF13 (Default)
[personal profile] lliira
I just finished reading an Ellis Peters book I'd never read before. I've been reading too much crap and too little good stuff lately. The feeling of reading something well-written, well-imagined, with good, nuanced characters whom the author enjoyed writing... aah. Peters loved femininity, she loved masculinity, she loved "other", she loved people. Brother Cadfael's world is probably not 100% authentic, but it's authentic enough to be coherent and have the right feel. This is what it's supposed to be about. I figured out who the murderer was before they even committed the crime, but that wasn't the true mystery of the book anyway.
