(Ana?) Also, a few other details seem a little hazy in this regard, but I am willing to suspend my misgivings for the sake of the story in this case. ![]() I am a sucker for super powers and/or magic of any kind though, so I'll let it slide. I really like the female MC, Cat, although she does whine a lot and I sometimes wanted to punch her right in her cantankerous mouth. The world building was well done and she managed to get it done without the usual first book info dump. This is my first (I think) Amanda Bouchet and I was really impressed, actually.

By then the heartlands of Silesia, Pomerania and East Prussia had been annexed by Poland and the Soviet Union, and ethnically cleansed of their German population, and the notorious "Junker" noble class systematically uprooted. Prussia is unique in that it was formally abolished by decree of the British, American, French and Soviet victors in February 1947, after it ceased to exist in any meaningful sense. Many states have been conquered, partitioned, occupied, "ended" and even destroyed. ![]() ![]() Among the book's themes is an allusion to the possibility of another cataclysmic world war brewing.

Why should they hear the babble that we think we mean? How can they meet us face to face till we have faces? Lewis provides an engaging retelling of one of the most popular myths from antiquity with what The Saturday Review called new meaning, new depths, new terrors. Lewis wrote this, his last novel, to retell their story from the perspective of Psyches sister, Orual: I saw well why the gods do not speak to us openly, nor let us answer. Now I know in part then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known. ![]() From the Back Cover Fascinated by the myth of Cupid and Psyche throughout his life, C. For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. In this, his final-and most mature and masterful-novel, Lewis reminds us of our own fallibility and the role of a higher power in our lives. Told from the viewpoint of Psyches sister, Orual, Till We Have Faces is a brilliant examination of envy, betrayal, loss, blame, grief, guilt, and conversion. Lewis-the great British writer, scholar, lay theologian, broadcaster, Christian apologist, and bestselling author of Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, The Great Divorce, The Chronicles of Narnia, and many other beloved classics-brilliantly reimagines the story of Cupid and Psyche. ![]() ![]() Book Synopsis A repackaged edition of the revered authors retelling of the myth of Cupid and Psyche-what he and many others regard as his best novel. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Many of his novels have themes and titles that invoke classical music, such as the three books making up The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle: The Thieving Magpie (after Rossini's opera), Bird as Prophet (after a piano piece by Robert Schumann usually known in English as The Prophet Bird), and The Bird-Catcher (a character in Mozart's opera The Magic Flute).
