    💞Loved Up

    Very interesting, detailed and picturesque narration, rich vocabulary. The book becomes more and more interesting with progress of reading.

    Потрясающая книга, интересно читать сразу на русском и английском, богатая лексика, подробные описания и диалоги, местами затянутые. Рекомендую интересующимся исторической прозой и изучающим английский язык на продвинутом уровне.

Quotes

  • veratodorovahas quoted4 years ago
    No contagious vapour shall breathe on Janet—she shall remain pure as a blessed spirit, were it but to pray God for her father. I need her prayers, for I am at a hard pass.

    I have said
    This is an adulteress—I have said with whom:
    More, she’s a traitor, and Camillo is
    A federary with her, and one that knows
    What she should shame to know herself. —WINTER’S TALE.

    There is no friend can help us so well as our own candid truth and honour. Bring but these to our assistance, and you are safe amidst a whole army of the envious and malignant.
