WOW--this was a wonderful read. Wasn't sure if i'd like it totally, but i LOVED it. You'll love Mary and the life she lives adds so much to this really sad but charming story. I found the more i read, the faster i found myself reading. Mary's demise was her love of beauty and the edge of life she could just not quite reach, no matter how she tried. This really was well worth time spent reading.
