The Bridges of Madison County by Robert James Waller
2.0
An easy slow-paced read about a love affair.
Story: Carolyn and Michael Johnson are siblings. They have a story they want written and published. The story takes place in Madison county, Iowa in 1965. It concerns their mother Francesca and photographer Robert Kincaid and how their lives are changed.
Characters: Francesca is a wife and mother living in rural Iowa. She does what she's supposed to - cook dinner, take her kids to lessons and events and doesn't give any reason for gossip. Robert Kincaid is a photographer by trade, and a loner, last cowboy type by manner. He drives a truck named Harry and lives life on the road and in nature. He also writes poetry.
Language: The language in this book is very feathery. It's not gritty or fierce or savage. It's about wistful dreams and held onto memories and bittersweet romance.
A bit fluffy for my tastes, but at least it was a short read.
