Where Two Worlds Touch by River Faire
4.0
Where Two Worlds Touch: An Outsider's Memoir in England is one of the most beautiful love stories come memoirs I've ever read and is one that swept me away as I turned the page.
River Faire has allowed the reader to glimpse moments in his life in Wimbledon from the moment he arrives back into England from the US, that effected him greatly and no doubt altered him in such a manner that it made him the man he is now.
The writing style is exquisite and gently lulls you in to appreciating his weekly shopping trips and talks of delicious and wholesome meals that will have you salivating, to his moments of tranquility as he appreciates the beauty of SW19 as River walks around the area he'd once called home.
There is a rawness about Where Two Worlds Touch: An Outsider's Memoir in England that has me held almost captive. The love between River and Robert is tangible and I ached for them both as it's so apparent from witnessing them both together for the first time and all I desperately wanted was for them to be together and happy.
Life of course, is never easy and I appreciated so much how eloquently River told their story from being torn apart to their reacquaintance and further still to their tranquil life in the countryside healing wounds they both shared and experienced. There is a vulnerability to each and every recollection and memory that often feels forced in other memoirs but not here. River Faire shared parts of his heart with us, and I for one? Feel honoured I got to read each and every page as these two wonderful men regained the assurity and love they deserve.
