Holy Fools

Joanne Harris has this wonderful style of delving into areas unknown, of even if they are known, talk about them does not come easily...and she turns them into lovely tales - remember Chocolat?

In this book, while telling us about how a child's mind can be changed, she writes:

'A moment comes when even the most acquiescent of them may reach a point beyond which the cartographers of the mind can map nothing more. A declaration of independence, perhaps. An affirmation of self.'
