Wow, that is SUCH a pretty room - wish we had more space to do this - most of our books are in a box in the attic!!

the floor is the original oak from 1939... this part of the house was a small farmhouse and the rest of the house grew around it. I think the library was the original dining room.

this is our ultimate dream house and I have told my husband I am staying in it forever, even if I get so old I have to go and down the stairs on my rear end.

I won't give away any more plot but its a metaphor for living, anger, trust, conflict faith and survival. Plus its touching and funny and has no sex and all the violence is just animals eating each other
. It's REALLY terrific.
