Lovely story (: Willa Cather-esque which I’m always gonna eat up. Quietly profound.

Zorrie is a beautifully written story of a hard-working rural woman's life. She is not without struggles or travails, sad events certainly occur, but she comes across as quietly strong, never veering into self-pity or the like. I found it quite moving; it's a deceptively simple book that accomplishes a lot in its short page count.
