Life is a train of moods, much like a string of beads; as we journey through them, they become vibrant lenses that color our perception of the world, revealing only what lies within their focus. This insightful quote introduces Sylvia, a bright and unconventional young woman of the 19th century faced with a pivotal choice between two men who adore her. Every decision she makes carries weighty consequences. This is the author’s first serious work for adults, following the success of the beloved Little Women. With its lively prose and sharp wit, Moods will resonate with fans of Louisa May Alcott and those who appreciate the themes explored by George Eliot. - Summary by Stav Nisser.
