I will forgive a lot if a novel can establish place quickly and honestly. The Great Houses of Pill Hill sounds like it can.

There is something deeply satisfying about a book that seems aware of architecture, class, weather, and memory all at the same time. Those details do not just decorate a story for me, they create its moral pressure.

If this novel really carries that kind of atmosphere, it sounds like exactly my sort of lingering read.
