Passage

Yes - watch out! Thank you, GG.

I adored Dickens and that seems unlikely, given that I was an ordinary girl in small town Oregon. I think I was in 6th grade when I discovered The Tale of Two Cities in the summer bookmobile, then I was off and running with old Charles. Another one I forgot was The Secret Garden (Burnett), which I read after I saw the film. I went through all of Steinbeck, then Austen and much later the Russians. Ahh, the good old days of new wonders every day. Those early books have stayed in my mind to this day.

... a mundane view, but then worked into an eye-catching shot ... evocative and moody ...
