I enjoyed this book much more than I expected too and definitely recommend giving it a read. The writing was generally wonderful. Places and people painted in vivid detail. On the subject of editing, she occasionally leaned toward excessively literary usage, but probably a justifiable risk when you write a description like “a lone seagull, the only one in the sky, flies low along the beach, close to our heads, then out to sea again, tilting hard left, one wing tipped toward the water, like a plane doing a trick.” |
