How the One-Armed Sister Sweeps Her House

The language in this book is lovely and poetic. Jones is masterful at setting scenes. I was not prepared for the content, however. It was all so sad and depressing. Maybe at another time (not during a pandemic when all sorts of misery are around), I would have received this book better. As it stands though, I found myself constantly saying ‘NO' while reading.
I also expected a bit of funny mixed-in based on the title. There was nothing funny in this book!
