This novel is second in a trilogy, following Frangipani, and readers will want to watch Materena's life develop, though it is not required to enjoy this one. You can almost smell fragrant frangipani blossoms, taste sweet papayas and feel cool breezes. The path through an entrance pavilion (embellished by a Bertoia sculpture) opens into a magical stony garden, a fragment of desert outcrop sprouting spiny cacti and frangipani. |
