I’m new to Liz Fenwick’s work, but based on my recent devouring of The Last Christmas, I’ve been missing out on some incredible storytelling.
But while Cole is the central character, this “novel in stories” is really about the women he encounters. Each is distinctly herself. There is no particular type, no interchangeable parade of romantic interests. Hale gives these women agency, personality, and histories of their own, while allowing us to experience Cole’s story through their eyes.

This is historical fiction, romance, family drama, and a novel about art, memory, culture, and identity, but none of those pieces feels as though it has wandered in from a different book.
Wow, that’s a great one! Very nice. I’ll be posting my faded soon! I hope you’ll stop by.
I can imagine the orginal bright, bright, bright colour, but I much prefer the faded version. Great post for this week’s theme.

First of all, I love your new design! The picture is awesome, too :-) And…nudge[cafewriting]nudge.
great shot!
I love all things farm related.
I can just smell the tractor oil and dirt.
faded is good.
A powerful picture made even more powerful by its back story. I think I like this tractor more in its present state than I ever would have had it been right off the showroom floor.
great picture. The fields around here have a few these old beauties. Great take on the prompt.
A brand new one is nice, but the faded tractor…. well, it says a whole lot. Great choice for the theme!
What a history that tractor must have.
Great choice for the prompt.
Oh thank you! Not only is this a great photo, but you’ve given me an inspiration.
I love this photo. We have a antique tractor here on our little farm and i love the nostalgia that it brings. Great interpretation of the theme!
