kingarooski 's review for:

Reservoir 13 by Jon McGregor

4.0

---

A teenage girl goes missing and a search is organised, but life goes on. As a reader, we follow the life of the small village in the moors over the years that follow the disappearance. The rhythms of life remain unchanged, the seasons come and go, the animal husbandry goes on. This is is a beautifully written book, with a gentle rhythm but best savoured slowly, with passages re-read (or re-listened).
