mariakureads 's review for:
The Bridge of San Luis Rey
by Thornton Wilder
It starts the way few books do, in the middle, in this case the after effects of a horrific accident that costs the lives of five people on a footbridge in Peru. That is not a spoiler, it's on the book blurb, but the interesting apart is the after effects of the incident that the book touches upon as the reader is introduced to Brother Juniper who wonders, was this an accident or was it fated to be by a higher power?
I can see that I would have completely passed by on this book and again thankful that it was brought to my attention as I actually ended up enjoying the sarcastic writing in regards to religion and culture that I find is just so Latin as we have an odd humor when it comes to some things, sayings or dichos that are threaded in this book that it just reminded me of what I know to be Latin humor.
Really glad that Brien picked this one.
