		This book deals with Euphemia Cottington, the sister of Angelica Cottington, who was separated from her family soon after Angelica's birth, for reasons no one seems to know.
		Euphemia's is very studied and almost Victorian, while Angelica's is more exuberant and curly - that a book of this sort could spell out personality differences through subtle tools such as this is a joy to behold.
		Unfortunately for her, her sister Euphemia has no such qualms about cheerily mingling with the fairy folk, and the humor of this book lies in Angelica's entries where she berates her sister's seemingly unpardonable activities - most of which are actually rather innocent acts, such as dancing with the fairies on a full moon.

		Even the painting of Saint Jerome, now in London's National Gallery, but from this Order's monastery of San Girolamo in Fiesole, is a double portrayal, representing as well the widowed Birgitta and her beautiful virgin daughter Catherine of Sweden in its depictions of Saints Paula and Eustochium.
		What has granted these women access to the sacred written word - which transcends time and death - has been their amalgamation of sacred history and sacred geography by means of their pilgrimages with their physical bodies with that Bible in their hands.
