Fiction: The Little White Horse by Elizabeth Goudge - Paul Ferguson - 04-09-2024
"While the child in me enjoyed the safe kind of jeopardy Maria and her friends encountered my adult self loved the mythological, historical and alchemical echoes in sun and moon imagery, motifs from medieval outlaw legends, and symbols like the lion and unicorn supporters from the royal coat of arms. Yet it’s the author’s visual language that most enthralled me, making the many characters distinctive and clothing, furniture, architecture and natural features extremely vivid and sharply delineated."
