Review: Esther

EstherEsther by Henry Adams
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Headstrong socialite gets mixed up in an art project at a church, falls for the minister, then realizes she can't stand the ways of the church. You can picture this as a Merchant & Ivory production with some humor, but as written there isn't much out and out humor but more a comedy, or is it a tragedy, of "modern beliefs" meeting a congregation. Enjoyable.
