"Difficult, ambitious, demanding--and exquisitely, unendingly, depthlessly beautiful both in matter and manner, to be read not just once."
Kirkus, 02/01/1999
Review:"[O]ne of the most trenchant treatments of voice and viewpoint in recent memory....Blackburn's resonant story is not only about the late Middle Ages and resolving the emotional turmoil of the narrator, but about fiction's observant skills. Instead of shifting perspectives in conventional alteration from present to past, the author is integrated with the characters, speaks to them, and joins their pilgrimage to a place of rebirth."
Robert Taylor, Boston Globe, 04/07/1999

The Leper's Companions (Paperback) (ISBN: 9780679758389) Blackburn, Julia Quantity Available: 1
Book Description: Vintage Books, United States, 2000. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 202 x 132 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. In this fascinatingly imaginative novel, Julia Blackburn has decimated all the rules, creating a magical tale that is part fable, part allegory, part present, part past, and wholly genuine and poetic. The unnamed protagonist has recently lost someone she loved, and her solution is to abandon the present, and the overwhelming pain. The seamless narrative lands her in a medieval seaside village where mermaids wash ashore, devils haunt in packs, a child is born with the head of a fish, and where one day, quite out of nowhere, there emerges a sage and wandering leper. The leper leads a small group of the villagers, including the protagonist, on a journey to Jerusalem, a harrowing pilgrimage that compels all the travelers to confront their deepest selves.Exquisite and lyrical, The Lepers Companions is a heart-rending tale by one of our most fiercely original storytellers.
