## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    LIGHT DESCENDING DELIGHTFUL
  

*by B***D on Reviewed in the United States on 1 September 2015*

LIGHT,  DESCENDING  by Octavia Randolph is delightful!It brings you vibrantly into Victorian life at the time of John Ruskin at Oxford,  into the company of Darwin, Turner,  Wordsworth, Bronte, Tennyson,Rossetti and Whistler,  a heady mix of science, art and writing.  Her writing is fine hewed with a generous slice of arch humor and shared sly insights.  Great read.Martha Collette

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great primer for those unfamiliar with John Ruskin
  

*by D***. on Reviewed in the United States on 23 March 2016*

This bio, though a fictional novel, is packed with true facts of Ruskin's life. He was a prolific writer with many interests, an artist, an art critic and so much more. This is neither a light nor heavy read, but certainly absorbing. It got a little bogged down about 3/4 through, but picked up toward the end. The libel trial brought against Ruskin by American artist Whistler is quite colorful.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Great Read
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United States on 8 January 2015*

This is a very well written and interesting historic novel about the career of a famous 19th century British art historian, critic, and author. The author creates a real feeling for the time in which the main character and the secondaries interacted by her descriptive writing and use of period language.
