Jayber Crow by Wendell Berry

2.0

I can't say I understand the hype surrounding this book. The story, what there is of one, is about a middle-aged bachelor who is in love with a married woman. Since he knows he can't have her in real life, but can't stop obsessing over her, he constructs this fantasy in which he pretends that she is married to him. This seems to me unhealthy and strange, bordering on creepy, and definitely not compelling.
