Title: Fun and Philosophical
Review: This is a very interesting book. I was attracted to it because I am always interested in stories about people wandering into the land of faerie, but it turned out to be so much more. Despite its simplicity, it is actually a very philosophical book, raising many questions about the nature of humanity. Connla gets to see what it is like to live in a "perfect" land, but he also comes to appreciate the unique gifts that come with being human and being mortal. It also presents the best description I have ever read of what the Sidhe, or fairies, are like, how they live in the moment because their lives are so long that they have little use for memory, and how they are not really capable of feeling love as humans do. Besides making me think, it was a fun read as well.
