The astronomer and other stories by Betts_ Doris
Like books about astronomy as I learn new things.
Rural NC and story of relationships. The new boarders take up his time but there are discussions of love, loss, etc.
Interesting how they used the black soot from the chimney in many ways before the war.
2 young girls in one story imagine spies in a house nearby....
I received this book from National Library Service for my BARD (Braille Audio Reading Device).

The other stories, yes, yes, they’re good. I like them just fine. But my God, The Astronomer.
Doris Betts is my Flannery O’Connor of a more ordered universe and The Astronomer is where it comes undone.
