2.0 out of 5 stars Boring, very boring., Jan 15 2010
This review is from: Out Stealing Horses (Paperback)
One word that best describes this novel is boring, I couldn't even finish it. I was forcing myself to finish it because I am the type of person who has to finish a book once it's started. BUT NOT THIS BOOK. It's still sitting on my bookshelf. Anything is more interesting then this book like watching a documentary on concrete.

5.0 out of 5 stars Splendid, Nov 11 2008
By Lauren B. Davis (Princeton, New Jersey) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Out Stealing Horses (Paperback)
There are few books I've read in the past ten years that touched me as this one did. The character is masterfully portrayed, the language splendid and the elegiac tone perfectly suits the story and perspective. A book of enormous compassion and insight into the human condition.
