A review by hlhindin
Ducks, Newburyport by Lucy Ellmann

5.0

This was a very special book. Getting into it and finding a rhythm was laborious for the first 200 pages, but pressing on was tremendously rewarding. I highly recommend this treasure. Don’t get too stuck on understanding and absorbing everything; much like the thoughts that run through your head, they can’t be too tightly held, nor are they meant to be.

Hang in there - you’ll be glad you did!

Also, don’t miss the glossary in the back. It took me awhile to see it.
