The Glassblower

Playing catch up, again.

#GreenGreenGrassOfHome

This novel is set in a small village/town near my home. Blowing glass is a trade that is found in the villages of my home area.

Anyway, "home" is the hills of the Thuringian forests. Where glass is blown, baubles for Christmas are made, small breweries, slate mines, and so much more.

"Johanna was beginning to understand why those who had suffered a death in the family always hated Christmas so much; the hole that their loved one left behind seemed bigger in the light of the Christmas candles."
