“Blood was streaming now, dripping down her white nightgown…Lilith draped her arm over my shoulder. Her eyes were glazed. I would practically have to carry her to the dressing room…What had happened to her on that stage? I couldn‘t get the image out of my head: Lady MacBeth, asking demons to fill her. Was it some invocation to her beloved Melpomene? Whatever she‘d done, it had worked. And that terrified me most of all.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A library book. I‘m looking forward to reading this as I loved The Familiars and The Foundling. I haven‘t read Mrs England yet.

Listend to this book as English audio book and I feared that I wouldn't quite get all the nuances Lehane uses to write his stories. But even though I might haven't got it all, it was still a very good book. Even though it feels a bit off to read about the suffering of BIPOC written by a white man, as far as I am allowed to judge he does a good job. And I learned another thing or two about American history, which isn't really lectured here.

Haven | Emma Donoghue

A well written historical fiction set in the 7th century. Three monks leave Ireland to find an island without any people so they can live without any negative worldly influence. Train and Cormac are very likable men. Artt is more unlikely to be by the two other monks. The island is covered with sea birds, which are used for foods, fire, down, feathers until they leave for the winter. Will they survive? Lots of rituals and ceremonies. 4/5 stars
