The Light in the Piazza Original Novel

Have any of you read it? How was it? I'm quite interested in reading it.

Thank you very much. I plan on reading the book.

The musical is not a strict adaptation of the novel. I was in attendance at a concert-style performance of the show in Weston, Vermont in July and Adam read the first chapter for us before the concert started. He told us that he had only ever read the novel ONCE, and then created the musical from his memory of the story. He said that he definitely did NOT scrutinize the novel for every detail of Spencer's story. I found that fascinating.

I must say that that evening was one of the finest experiences of my life!

Give it a read. It's a nice little novella and won't cost you much in terms of time or money to read it. I got my copy for about a dollar on half.com -- it was definitely worth that.
