Media Reviews
'We all have our own journeys through life, and we can each take a different journey through this book, by dipping in and out of it and staying with whatever appeals to us. It is like a treasure chest, but instead of old photographs to trigger our memories, there are literary references to spark our imaginations. This is a book full of treasures, both new and old.' -- Catherine Rowland, Network.
