The Shipping News by Annie Proulx
4.25
dark emotional funny hopeful mysterious medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes
It’s rare that I find myself reading a novel and highlighting sections just because I love their lyricism. (Insights? Sure. Witticisms? Often.) This read like poetry and I loved its quirky, eerie, yet quietly hopeful arc.
