A review by lfarns
The Bone People by Keri Hulme

4.0

This is an ordinary story about friendship, coming back to one's roots and family, and the everyday struggles of people haunted by their pasts. But this ordinary story is told in such a unique way. There is nothing formal or standard about Hulme's writing. Stream of consciousness, unorthodox shifts in perspective, and poetry are all a part of what make this a worthy Booker Prize winner from its time.
