This goes on my list as one of the best books I've read!
Leni is a wonderful, strong character I adored, Cora, her weak mother and Ernt, her violent father suffering from PTSD after returning from Vietnam. He decides to move his family to Alaska in 1972 and pioneer in a shack his best friend left him after he was killed.
This is not an easy book to read but I was so engrossed, I couldn't put it down even when my eyes strained to focus in the wee hours of the night. It was a monumental story with a powerful ending and I haven't stopped thinking about it since.
Highly recommended!
