Quotes by Antonia Forest (?)

“Difficult, Patrick thought, to think of that as Nicola singing — this immaculate succession of notes, lifting and drifting among the soaring pillars and arches as he had seen thistledown lift and drift one evening in the watermeadows, floating away at last above the trees.”
― Antonia Forest, End of Term
