jennieleigh 's review for:
West with the Night
by Beryl Markham
I read someone else's comments on this book saying it was written by a contemporary of Karen Blixen (Out of Africa) and that it touched on the same themes but with better writing. That turned out to be the understatement of the century. It's some of the best writing I've ever read and has quickly rocketed to one of my top/favorite books of all time. What a huge surprise this was. I was so heartbroken to finish this book, I wish I could drown in it just a few days longer. I will absolutely be re-reading this regularly over the years.
