A Blind Man Can See How Much I Love You by Amy Bloom
4.0
I just re-read this--another antidote to Blood Meridian.
Don't be put off by the people who say her characters are creepy (like the one who was upset that there were two stories about a man being in love with his step-mother--they were two stories about the SAME CHARACTER). Amy Bloom is a wonderful writer with an excellent way of stringing words together. This was definitely one of those books where I'd read a story, close the book, lay it on my chest, and then just think about it for a while.
Highest praise in my book.
