Well, that was fun! The imagery attracted me, actually. I do mixed media art and collage so the vivid imagery speaks to me. I read this book and came away pretty impressed with the volume of observations one can make regarding the hand. Years and years ago, a woman on the streets of Granada, Spain, grabbed my hand and asked if I would care to have my palm read. As she spoke, she suddenly grew pale and dropped my hand, and quickly backed away. Apparently, something she saw, caused this violent reaction...she quickly walked away. Ever since that day, I have been curious about what one might see in another's palm. This book is lovely, and thoughtful, and gave me an idea of what it was she may have seen in my hand. A fun read... - Ginn
