To The Bright Edge of the World by Eowyn Ivey
5.0
Thank you to Netgalley for the chance to read and view this book
I loved The Snow Child and I equally loved To the Bright Edge of the World. Eowyn Ivey's writing is so real yet magical you can imagine yourself in the depths of Alaska as you follow Allen and Sophie's stories. The book is written through letters, articles and journal entries. This novel tells the story not just of Allen on his expedition and that of his wife eagerly awaiting his next letter whilst immersing herself in her passion for photography and the issues that entails. It also tells the story of the native indians, a modern day friendship that forms and some local folklore woven in. The writing is beautiful and descriptive. I loved it and am looking forward to the authors next novel.
