Customer Reviews

Well written

I discovered Elizabeth Goudge through The Little White Horse and read as many of her books as I could find. This was beautifully written and engaging as all her books are. It was a little sad for me. I gave away my copy. Don't miss out on this author though. This might be for you if you enjoy a book that pulls on your heart. I don't like crying while I read :)

Living history

The Middle Window Elizabeth Goudge is one of my favorite authors: I wish she'd written more books! Every book is different, but with insights that surprise and challenge. This one fits that pattern well! A story beautifully woven together that shows hope fulfilled.

Read this book time and again....

I have read this book many times over the years. It is a favorite of mine and no doubt will hold a prominent position on your bookshelf as well. Elizabeth Goudge deftly tells a tale of Scotland through the ages. Her characters are well developed. The heroine recalls a love affair that transcends lives and geographical locale. Her lover, a soldier, comes to her through the middle window and their boundless love brings them both joy and suffering. No other book takes readers on a love journey through the silver seas.

love and reincarnation

A story about a couple which is able to discover a past life and continue their mission. Elizabeth Goudge was interested by idea of reincarnation and imagine how things which have not been solved in the past could go on in the present. A love story which can make believe how important our deeds are. A lovely country and a part of history.

My favorite book for the last 20 years!!! And I read a lot!

A perfect romance story. Well written and totally engrossing! Combine Scotland, a lively and intelligent group of characters, and a little reincarnation, and viola!
