It's open for the month of April, and the notice promises "Wistaria and Sunshine." The book tells the story of how they arrive at this heaven, San Salvatore, and how their lives are changed by the month they spend there. No wonder, then, that the book's heroines find themselves bewitched by an Italian castle they see advertised. Miserable March, it might be called, and we've all been there. It's so vivid you can almost feel your nose running and hear the squelching of your ruined shoes. Madeline Miller is the author of The Song of AchillesĮlizabeth von Arnim's The Enchanted April opens with misery - not catastrophic, but ordinary: cold rain, sodden clothes, unhappy relationships, constricted life.
