I finished this book moments ago and am thankful for its existence.
Within the confines of a hayloft, Miriam Toews creates a deep ecosystem of life, social webs, shared history, thought, and—most importantly—characters that feel so very real.
I’m in awe of the format and storytelling of this book. Masterful craft.
