A review by loragracegrace
The Bridge of San Luis Rey by Thornton Wilder

5.0

I picked this book up at random to read before the year’s end, and I was utterly caught off guard by how much I loved the prose. Wilder is so masterful at quick, deep characterization. A story about shades of love, loneliness, and death that could have been didactic, but isn’t. And a quick read, you could finish it in a morning.
