March
by Geraldine Brooks
A little uneven. I started out not sure why I was reading it (apart from the whole Pulitzer Prize thing), began to love it, then started to find it very frustrating. As you probably know, it's a retelling of [book:Little Women] from the absent father's perspective, showing both his experiences during the war as well as his background and romance with Marmee. Descriptions of the South and New England both are evocative and beautiful and there are really some lovely vignettes and details throughout, but the two main characters tended to grate with their near-constant moralizing.
