A review by ddejong
Roots and Sky by Christie Purifoy

5.0

Christie's writing is stunning- I highlighted aggressively throughout this book. The metaphor of the four seasons as well as the metaphors related to all the work Christie + family did during the first year of owning their late 1800s farmhouse really resonated with me. From a publishing perspective I thought this book was kind of bizarre- huge margins, very small font, not really a vivid black typeface (more grayish?). I was a little stumped by the amateurishness of the actual book. Nevertheless, a great read!
