Super book on survival in the Middle Ages that deals with the life of one intelligent woman who witnessed the deaths around her. When faith cannot uphold the villagers, in ignorance they turn to hatred, mistrust and witch hunts. Their fears are multiplied by the isolation of the village which, following the words of their priest, has quarantined itself from the rest of the world. But even the priest is overcome as he yields to an illicit affair. Ending is a bit weak, but story overal is engrossing.
