Book Review: A Magical Vintage
Summary: 4 Stars
An intoxicating tale of Jay Mackintosh who escapes his mundane life in London amidst the pretentious world of literary launches, bored journalists and cheap champagne to a derelict farm house in the French village of Lansquenet.Flashbacks to his childhood where he was befriended by Joe Cox of Pog Hill - an itinerant gardener and wine maker of note make for some fascinating reading.
In Lansquenet his reclusive neighbour, Marise who has a terrifying secret, is shunned by the inhabitants of the village -a veritable collection of interesting and colourful characters.
Its been 10 years since Jay has made any contribution to the literary world and it is here in Lansquenet that he hopes to magically write his long overdue novel, but magic, like wine, needs teh right conditions in order to work.
As usual, a totally absorbing story and another wonderful book from Joanne Harris. Highly recommended.
