Review~ Something Rich & Strange

Written by Patricia A. McKillip & illustrated by Brian Froud in 1994. Second in a series. A novella length allegorical tale reminding humanity of our interwoven relationship with the earth, and especially the sea.

Megan, a pen & ink artist specializing in seascapes, lives with Jonah in a seaside village making a living selling fossils, Megan's drawings & tourist knicknacks to the invading hordes. The story details the strange & wonderful events that begin in Megan's drawings.

I, personally, would have taken Adam in a minute. Dropped Jonah like a hot potato & not looked back. But,hey.
