The book of Hidden Wonders por Crosby Polly
difficult, long & vaguely repetitive an Xcellent debut novel, looking forward to the rest!

Beautiful, original, memorable, gently haunting. Polly Crosby draws you into this uniquely insular and strange island world just off the East Anglian coast, where peculiar mutations have been happening to the wildlife. And yet a place so sparsely populated that strong bonds of friendship can be formed. Set mostly in 1928 and 2018, Marianne is very old and has seen much change here. Can young Tartelin help her?

Strange. Beautiful. Moody. Slow to start. A panoply of differences - webbed hands, a scale-like cheek, a wheelchair, Asperger's. An odd climax and conclusion. A young woman who finds peace after grief. An elderly one who struggles with a lifetime of guilt. Not sure what the point of it all is, but an enjoyable read nonetheless.
