She jumps at the chance to return to the country. The story is beautiful. It follows the experiences of Marianne Daventry, a young lady who recently lost her mother and lives with her grandmother in Bath, England. She is invited to Edenbrooke, the vast estate of a childhood-friend of her mother.

In one week.ĭonaldson calls Edenbrooke “a proper romance.” I find that classy. Edenbrooke by Julianne Donaldson has become one of those books for me. It’s not often that I read a book over and over right after I finish it the first time. Today I’m back with a review of one of my recent absolute favorite romances.

Their journey would last more than two years and circle the globe. Their mission was "to proceed all the way to the end of the earth to collect tribute from the barbarians beyond the seas" and unite the whole world in Confucian harmony. The ships, huge junks nearly five hundred feet long and built from the finest teak, were under the command of Emperor Zhu Di's loyal eunuch admirals.

As a boy, Asher befriends Yudel Krinsky during Aryeh’s frequent travels to Eastern Europe to help persecuted Jews. ![]() Asher’s mother Rivkeh is often caught between him and his disapproving father. Though he doesn’t dislike his yeshiva studies, Asher struggles to have enough energy for both school and his art. The Ladover community, and Asher’s father in particular, believe that art is from the sitra achra and is therefore demonic in nature. Throughout his life, these two commitments create conflict in Asher’s mind, as well as between Asher and his parents and yeshiva teachers. From the time he is a little boy in Brooklyn, New York, Asher has ingenious instincts and a talent for drawing. He is the son of Aryeh Lev and Rivkeh Lev. Asher Lev is a Hasidic Jew and a gifted artist, a member of the somewhat insular and highly observant Ladover sect. ![]() ![]() Richardson’s work to Frank McCourt’s Angela’s Ashes and Dennis Lehane’s Mystic River.
