I really loved this book. Proulx has a gift in the way she relates detail and
her characters are beautifully drawn.

Caught in Always Sunday where it was snuggled next to several other books on Bookcrossing bookshelf...
I shall read after the Chronicles of Narnia, and The Wasp Factory... Re-release depends on my chances of re-reading! I shall update in due course...

Well, I've finally made it to the end but it was a long and arduous journey.
Partly this was due to work circumstances meaning I had limited opportunities to read, other than in small chunks. Mostly, I found it difficult to get on with the stark, pared down style of prose Proulx adopts in this book.
It is a good story, and it is well told, and is paced slowly, but steadily. I definitely recommend reading it, but it's not been one of my favourites...
To be released again tomorrow...
