That Old Ace in the Hole by Annie Proulx

slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character

4.0

First time reading one of Prolux’s long form works. This book really is about the journey, not the destination, and I loved her descriptions of the panhandle and the people in it. She is a master at weaving fascinating stories in places where most others would overlook. 
This is an excellent book to read slowly and enjoy.
