The Hermit's Story by Rick Bass

5.0

A mesmerising collection of stories set in stark, cold, wild places filled with people clinging onto, falling into and giving up on love. The descriptions of the natural world are stunning and make me want to pack myself up and go and live in the frozen wilds of Montana (despite my complete inability to survive outside of the cushiest of urban environs). My first Rick Bass book and definitely not my last.
