The Silence of Bonaventure Arrow by Rita Leganski

5.0

This was great! I enjoyed how the magical realism was used, it was woven into the story very organically. I think the use of a third person omniscient narrator was a good choice, as the magical elements were presented without much fanfare. Anyway, this is the tale of a little boy who doesn't speak, but whose hearing is supernaturally acute. He uses this, along with help from another character, to heal some wounds I his family. The writing is wonderful, I recommend that you pick this up if it sounds at all intriguing.
