“Her body moved with the frankness that comes from solitary habits. But solitude is only a human presumption. Every quiet step is thunder to beetle life underfoot; every quiet choice is a world made new for the chosen. All secrets are witnessed.”
That was it. I have never been so captivated by an opening paragraph ~ and never has a book held me so truly captive as Prodigal Summer does. This is simply the most sensuous book I have ever read.
The body moving with that frankness of solitary habit, who “if she’d troubled to inspect her own mind on this humid, sunlit morning, …would have declared herself happy” is ~ well it takes us a while to find out who she is.
