The Girl He Left Behind by Beatrice MacNeil

3.0

Expectations were low and I was pleasantly surprised! At first I was afraid the story would get tangled up in the poetic prose but for the most part it didn't, although the dialogue was a little too poetic to feel realistic. As always, I'm no fan of the plot based on lack of communication, but besides this it was a lovely, tragic, whimsical, Canadian novel that I'm glad to have picked up.
