    "How, preciously, do we bottle imagination?"
  

*by G***H on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 9, 2015*

This novel by Smith is loosely based on Ovid's story "Iphis and Ianthe" from his Metamorphoses.  It is about two sisters, Anthea and Imogen, who live in a small Scottish town in their grandparents house.  Their grandparents disappeared while sailing Europe and left the house to the girls.  The novel begins with a memory of their grandfather telling them a story which begins, "Let me tell you about when I was a girl," which brings squeals of delight and giggles from the little girls sitting in his lap.  So it begins happily enough but we soon find out there is trouble in paradise.Both girls work for a corporation called Pure, a bottled water company, which is not all that it seems. While Imogen is moving her way up the corporate ladder, Anthea is unhappy at work and feels out of place.  Then one day Anthea is looking out of the window at work and sees what she thinks is a young man in a kilt writing graffiti about Pure on Pure's walls and signing his work Iphis.  Anthea is intrigued so she rushes out of the office to check it out.  Upon getting close to this stranger, Anthea thinks:  "He was the most beautiful boy I had ever seen in my life.  But he looked really like a girl."  It turns out to be a girl, a girl named Robin, who had gone to school with the sisters and Imogen remembers her as being weird even then.  But soon Robin and Anthea begin a guerilla warfare type of campaign against Pure and start posting their messages all over town.Meanwhile Imogen get a promotion for a creative idea she has and is sent to Pure's base camp to meet with the boss, Keith, who turns out to be an evil mastermind after world dominance.  This totally turns Imogen around about the corporation and what she is doing with her life.  Without telling everything about the novel I will stop here and let you read it for yourself.  It is a delightful little novel and not at all like most of the stories in Ovid's "Metamorphoses" as it is much too lighthearted for that.  Imogen, Anthea, and Robin are all delightfully delicious characters who you will fall in love with.
