blairewithane 's review for:

The Levee by William Kent Krueger
4.0

Probably 3.5…my mind kept wandering during it. Historical fiction about the largest flood in the US and one family’s fight to keep the levee from breaching and a little group that comes together including a couple of convicts as they try to decide whether to stay. The authors note that this was inspired by a Faulkner novella and that he had it in a drawer for many years was really interesting.
