It might come as no surprise that a book about four women holidaying in a medieval Italian castle in April is my choice for November’s theme of ‘Light in the Dark’. As someone who has Seasonal Affective Disorder, I find that this often takes the shape of dreaming of the renewed energy I will have in the springtime and of all the wonderful, flower-strewn places I will visit, once the sunshine returns. As the dark days descend, summoning up any feelings of joy can seem almost impossible, and yet I feel that there are always glimmers of light on the horizon, in some way, shape, or form. November is a difficult month for many of us, even at the best of times.
