A review by meagan_young
The Age of Miracles by Karen Thompson Walker
5.0
Karen Thompson Walker has such VOICE. Her novels are works of art.
I love that her stories are not so focused on the drama of the disasters. There is no one-upping of crazy events and catastrophes. She just writes about life. How inch by inch, a world crumbles, and life goes on. How do people cope? How does a disaster start and build? She doesn’t just start us at an unimaginable, apocalyptic world, she carries us along for the journey there.
I would read anything she puts out.
