…and came away wildly frustrated that nobody milked that poor fucking cow!
The medieval chapters were among the best historical fiction I’ve ever read. I found myself frustrated with the present day chapters because I was dying to get back to the 14th century.
I felt that there was a lot of repetition in the present day part, which probably contributed to the frustration. I stuck it out though since the other half was so rich.
Gonna ask my therapist why I was so much more upset about the cow than the people literally dying of the plague.
I read all 14 or 15 or whatever Wheel of Time books and the one thing that upset me the most was an animal death in the last book! Animals don’t have any responsibility for the terrible human situations they get pulled into.
