lizardkidd 's review for:
The Bridge of San Luis Rey
by Thornton Wilder
A story about the lives and deaths of 5 people who died crossing the Bridge of San Luis Rey; which broke and plunged its victims to the gorge below.
Brother Jupiter wishes to find the correlation between each victim (eventually drawing up a chart of their Goodness, Piety, and Usefulness). The book takes you through each story (Estiban’s was my personal favourite), and ends the book with a sort of run down of affairs, analysing their commonalities.
There’s a beautiful passage on page 93 which would be my answer to Brother Jupiter’s question of correlation.
And the final two sentences of the book leave you with a touching sentiment, possibly closure.
