Book Review: A warm and wonderful book
Summary: 5 Stars
Emma Litton has been alone all her life. She lost her mother at birth. And the only time she had the full attention of her brilliant artist father was once, when she was six, he painted her portrait. Briefly she had a brother, Christopher whom she called Cristo, while his mother was married to her father. All too soon Cristo was gone too, but never to be forgotten. Then her father, on his way to America, sent her to boarding school in Switzerland, and there she stayed until she was old enough to find a job for herself in Paris. Through all those years Ben Litton visited her a couple of times, briefly each time. He never wrote letters and he did not use the telephone. His only infrequent communications came by way of telegrams. Finally, in Paris, Emma rediscovers Christo, but then she is on her way home to her father, to determine whether she can have any kind of relationship, form any kind of family unit, with him. In London, en route to Cornwall, she meets the man of her dreams, her father's very handsome galley agent. But Emma cannot begin to dream, cannot acknowledge the love she finds with Robert Morrow, until she has learned the truth about her father. When her father leaves her alone again, she turns to Christo. But it seems that he, a young actor with a brilliant future, will treat her with much the same indifference her father has always shown her, willing to abandon her for the advancement of his career.Emma will finally get another view of her father -- a view through another window into his heart and soul -- and through that view will learn not only the truth about him but about herself as well. But will the truth that sets her free to love come to late for her to win that love?
Another View was written thirty years ago. But with its timeless appeal and story line, it reads as though it might have been written last week -- and will probably read that way after another thirty years. A warm and wonderful book, peopled with the bewitching, irresistible characters Pilcher e! xcels at, it is a brief book that you wish would double in size because you are loathe to have it end so soon.
