A Month in the Country

Wrote a review for

A sad book, not in a tragic way, but wistful.

Beautiful in the way that life often is, wonderful moments surrounded by longing and living what Henry David Thoreau called a life of quiet desperation. It is short in length, but I'm sure I'll remember it for a long time. Poor Kathy Ellerbeck, Lucy Sykes, Alice Keach and Moon. As I read the book, most notably in the final act, I kept hearing the song "This Nearly Was Mine" play in the idle part of my mind.
