Excess of Passion

Just a few of the hundreds of passion flowers that are growing all over our wall.
Admin1 is reading The Square of Sevens by Laura Shepherd-Robinson, a highly convoluted and (self-acknowledgedly) Dickensian tale of lost inheritance, mysterious (and fake)  cartomancy, decades-long lawsuits and a family at war with — and in love with — itself. The complexity and narrative unreliability increases for the first two-thirds of the book, but the hard work pays off handsomely in the final third. A difficult read in places (the included family tree is helpful), but very much worth it. Thanks Admin2!
