Sister Joan’s least favourite hour of the day was the hour of recreation sandwiched between supper and Benediction. In one sense, it justified its name since all that the members of the Community did was to re-create the events of the day in minute and tedious detail. The above quote is the first lines from a book called “A Vow of Silence” by Veronica Black. It made me laugh with her use of “recreate” and “re-create,” and I was hooked from there.
