Elizabeth Goudge revival?

One of my favorite authors is Elizabeth Goudge (Not to be confused with Eileen Goudge, who is now a best selling author).

Elizabeth Goudge wrote most of her historical novels after World War I, so is considered "out of date", yet her novels still are around: I actually found "The Dean's Watch" among the paperbacks in our used book store, and my step daughter tells me that her book club is reading one of Elizabeth's books this year.

My favorite novel, however, is the Scent of Water

And now, one of her children's books, The Little White Horse is now being released as a movie, The Secret of Moonacre...



I don't know if it is any good, but I will have to keep an eye out on it.
