regarding geneva, i think above people have explained it well but also i think when someone passes away you are more aware of them and thinking back to what you remember most passionately about them in their life. probably when she was alive he thought of her as 'part of the dunsany family' and she was there in the back of his mind but then when she dies it is brought more to the forefront -- LJG Discussion board

In reply to: Oleander 's message, "ok, I am not doubting herself, but I am troubled. It seems in this book that LJG is very close to the Dunsany family- he seems pretty torn up when Geneva dies. But in Voyager, when he brings Jaime to Helwater, he states that be barely remembered her- she couldn't have lived more than two years after LJG brough Jaime- enough time to become seriously attached to her? And how does LJG end up marrying Isobel- he clearly states that since Hal has provided the future generations he won't be obligated to marry and all that...." on 19:05:21 09/03/07 Mon

thanks for the responses ladies! I think I was on pretty much the same page re: Isobel- I just would love to read how it all transpired...LOL I am impatient, I love LGJ, I want to know it all! As far as Geneva goes, I guess I just got different impressions from the two books- regardless, it is what it is, as herself wishes it to be! (NT) -- Oleander, 18:49:09 09/04/07 Tue
