Bureau Mitte bureaumitte — The Language of Flowers is a gorgeously constructed bouquet; it tantalises the senses, it's exquisite in detail, provokes an abundance of emotions and is quite simply ... irresistible. Weaving hypnotically between Victoria's past and present in alternating chapters, Vanessa Diffenbaugh reveals Victoria's scarred childhood; abandoned, a life spent in foster care, emancipated from the system at age 18, but destitute and homeless. She's damaged, emotionally detached, socially inept and mistrustful, she's built up a defensive arsenal to protect herself from further pain and while she could be perceived as prickly and unlikeable, Diffenbaugh portrays Victoria with such sensitivity that I couldn't help but find her endearing. Her struggle to love and trust with so little experience of being loved herself captured my heart. Victoria's only respite from the foster care system is a year spent with down-to-earth Elizabeth at age 10. She meets her first experience of love and understanding with sabotage and rage but as she slowly learns to trust something tragic happens and she's returned to state care. What she takes from her time with Elizabeth is a love and knowledge of flowers and plants; the symbolism in flower-given messages. Working with Renata at Bloom allows Victoria to develop her gift with flower messages, allows her to express herself in the only way she knows how and introduces her to Grant. I placed a rhododendron on the plywood counter before him. The cluster of purple blossoms was not yet open and the buds pointed in his direction, tightly coiled and toxic. Beware The flower descriptions and meanings are beyond words, I cannot tell you how much I adored the beautiful detail; it's not only fundamental to the story but there's just something totally romantic and sentimental in communicating without words ~ *sighworthy* I've always loved giving and receiving flowers, I'd now love my own Victorian flower dictionary to add special meaning to the joy of flowers. The Language of Flowers is a story about love, forgiveness and family, the family you make your own. It has a deep well of pain and sadness but it's ultimately uplifting and a 'keeper' on my bookshelf.
