“YOU DON’T HAVE TO UNDERSTAND HER TO LOVE HER”
“She’s insane,” Sir Alfred raged on. “She talks to fairies.
She lives in a dreamworld in that forest of yours”
An ecological Regency Romance is a rare thing.
Pippa Rathborne narrates Barbara Metzger’s
AN ENCHANTED AFFAIR,
which, like all good fairy stories, is rooted in reality, and infused with the author’s characteristic humour and compassion for people and animals.
No one believed, no one cared. Without that ancient forest, so full of history, so full of mystery, a bit more of the world’s magic would be lost.
