The Vintners Luck
Set in 18th century Burgundy , France 'The Vintner's Luck' tells the story of a vintner Sobran Jodeau and an angel named Xas. From their first meeting and then each year on the anniversary we follow their story and the complex relationship between this man and angel which takes them on a lifetime journey of self discovery.
Written in lyrical prose and full of extraordinary characters this is brimming with original ideas that had me thinking deeply about my own philosophy of God, angels, heaven and hell. Knox is masterful with an astonishing gift of language and imagery. A memorable novel where I found myself reading passages several times over to savour the words and wishing the moment would never come when I would have to turn to the final page. by Jennifer Snell -
