Hi Trish
I was really looking forward to reading "Year of Wonders", but I could not get
on with it for two reasons:
One was the reader, but I might some day solve that by reading the txt version,
and the other was that Geraldine Brooks changed the name of the parson from
Monpessan to Monpellian (sorry about the spelling). In the note at the end of
the
book she says she did this so that she could develop his character (or
something like that).
I have read and heard quite a lot about Eyam and found it difficult to cope
with the name change.
I might try again one day.
Pele
