An amazing writer! So subtle, so poetic in her prose, so strong and beautiful in execution. There is so much subtext to be read and understood between the visible lines, and presented so gently that the reader is awash in understanding and emotion without even knowing it at first. This is a very powerful book full of humanity, insight, and feeling.
I saw the movie made from this book years ago. It starred Glenn Close and Keith Carradine, both in roles very different from their usual fare. It was a very spiritual, gripping movie which has haunted me since. The book is ten times as powerful as that movie. But then, I really don't see how this book could be translated into a movie any better than they did... What a writer... Amazing!
