There's not a lot of the book by volume, you know, that's true. The reviewer says La Roche has compiled an abundance of facts and at times her work reads like fiction,. Whether or not she has established a larger truth is uncertain. She felt sorry for everyone who ever cared about something that didn't work out. And I felt sorry for myself for being lost in the facotchy strand with no idea of what to do. At this point I realized it was just disappoint me as well that I never saw a ghost orchid so that could never remain forever.
