This was my first introduction into Munro’s writing and I am an absolute mess right now. It was so much better than I was expecting.
At first I had my doubts, it was an old book and we opened into the middle of buttfuck no where Canada and I was thinking how could this possibly be interesting? But I kept going because, naturally, Munro writes in a way that is inexplicably riveting and the things she directs our attentions to make it impossible to not be utterly transported into the story.
I was with Del the entire time and in a way that I felt like I was just a friend listening to her tell me about her childhood, letting me develop my own opinions towards her family, friends and town. Munro’s level of observation and ability to capture a scene into words like it’s a photograph is beyond amazing. Usually I hate excessive detail and descriptions but Munro told you exactly what something looked like and how it felt in a way that I just was helpless as to see it.
I feel like I’ve just walked through the memories of someone’s life in such an intimate way that it feels strange to not be able to know anymore about Del and her journey into adulthood.
I’m undoubtedly one of Munro’s newest fans.
