À propos de l?auteur
Victoria Hanley learned to love stories at an early age. She has had many different jobs such as house painter, child-care worker, Montessori teacher, folk-singer, waitress, cook, baker, bookkeeper, school registrar, massage therapist and anatomy instructor, among many others. She lives in Colorado with her husband and two children.
À propos de la quatrième de couverture
A child born to such a calling is often called a dreamer ...
Bryn is a humble stonecutter's daughter, accustomed to being tagged the odd one, the strange girl, the shiftless creature. She is disturbed by visions of things no one else can see, sneered at because she talked to the wind and sky. Why, then, does the village priest think so highly of her?
But the day comes when a spinning thistledown leads Bryn to her destiny - to a place very different from the tiny village where she has spent her first fifteen years. She enters the famous Temple of the Oracle, and discovers that her innate gifts make her a terrifying threat to those who seek to abuse the Temple's power for their own glory.
Though her desires are simple - friendship with other handmaids and gaining the love of Kiran, a remarkable horse-trainer - she soon finds her path obscured by complex troubles. Struggling to keep the flame of her spirit pure and bright, Bryn must overcome more obstacles than she could ever imagine.
This extraordinary novel sweeps you into a world that can almost be touched - one where the people and colours remain in your mind for days after the book is closed.
