Opis

More than a travel memoir, "Hallowed Be Thy Rain" is a collection of stories about some of author Lynne Martin's favorite places and favorite people.

Sightseeing takes a back seat as the author recollects the interactions with old friends and new, some of whose life experiences become those of the author, at times leaving her and the reader with a lingering melancholy. Scenery becomes background to these encounters connected by a common theme-rain-as some friends are made while others are lost.

Some locations are in another hemisphere and others as close as home. If you can imagine riding a horse through a crater on the island of Crete or wonder how bright the Southern Cross is at two in the morning, "Hallowed Be Thy Rain" is the book for you. Good reading, especially on a rainy day.
