You have such a gift for putting things into words and I love historical novels. My grandmother was 16 in 1912 when she married. It was interesting reading about Jessie Gaebele in A Flickering Light. I am self-publishing a book of poetry this next year and am looking forward to gleaning some knowledge and insight from Barcelona Calling. What about Shimmering Grasses, Jane? Was it the intended title for An Absence So Great? Best wishes on fulfilling your dreams of many more books. Very worthwhile and very well done!

I was thrilled to have her for my classes in a writer's workshop in Pennsylvania because I had read her book, Love to Water My Soul, and loved it with all my heart! Thanks for a great review on Barcelona Calling. It, along with her former books, makes me really want to read it! Jane Kirkpatrick is loved by readers in the East, as well as in the Northwest.

Thu, 20 Oct 2011 16:44:17 +0000 http://www.nwbooklovers.org/?p=10030#comment-2456 I have read every one of Jane's books I've been able to get my hands on, from our local library, various bookstores, trading with my sister. Can't wait to begin "Barcelona Calling"! Engrossed in her stories, I find myself laughing, crying, and writing down quotes for later use as she transports me to another time in history. I so look forward to meeting her face to face when "Where Lilacs Still Bloom" is released, as Grandma Klager's story holds a personal place in my heart. Love you Jane - Please keep writing!

Looking forward to meeting Jane at some point; I was planning on seeing her at Paulina Springs in Redmond this summer, but she cancelled due to Jerry's heart issue. Hope all is going well for their family! This was a fantastic interview! Hi, would love to read this book!
