The Lost Garden by Helen Humphreys

This was a re-read for Book Club. Our theme this Saturday is Helen Humphreys, a Canadian author who writes beautiful prose and tells a wonderful story in less than 200 pages. I call her a "miniaturist". I read all three of the chosen books - Coventry, The Frozen Thames and Lost Garden - but this one, The Lost Garden is my favorite, so much so that when I found the novel in the BMV near Karen's apartment, I purchased it. It only took one day to re-read it, but it was a pleasure, and I found even more in it the second time. I'm looking forward to Book Club's discussion this Saturday!
