[quote=""Tanzanite""]Love's Bright Flame by Sheila Holland (about Eleanor of Aquitaine) from the late 70s.[/quote]
Is that the writer who was also known as Charlotte Lamb? She wrote one of my all time favourite romances called 'Secrets.' I bought the book from Amazon second hand books somewhere in the U.S.A. I shall look up Loves Bright Flame.

The Daylight Gate by Jeannette Winterson, a dark little folktale set around the 17th century Pendle witch trials in Lancashire. The spare but compelling style adds impact - the simplicity is deceptive. Sex and torture included - not a bedtime story for children!
