The Wilding - Maria McCann

I've nearly finished reading Maria's excellent book: The Wilding. Deservedly long-listed for this year's Orange Prize, this is a terrific story beautifully told. As in As Meat Loves Salt, the language perfectly evokes the historical period without ever being difficult or irritating to read. I'm not usually a fan of historical fiction, but for Maria's books I make a very honourable exception.
