A Million Heavens by John Brandon

5.0

I LOVED this book. Lively and lyrical storytelling with a simple profundity. The author's sparse and poetic style reminds me of Richard Brautigan. There were gem like lines that actually took my breath away.The book consists of loosely interwoven and multi-perspective vignettes placed in the desert setting of New Mexico, with all that the desert gives and all it takes away. Thematically, this story centers around dis/connection, search for meaning and love but never hits you over the head. This is the first time I have read this author and I am on my way to the library to seek out his other books.
