In Country by Bobbie Ann Mason

4.0

I read Mason's Feather Crowns many years ago and was sort of so-so on it. I liked In Country quite a lot. In its spare 240ish pages, it captured a lot about what I can now imagine it must have felt like as an essentially orphaned kid of the 80s growing up in the aftermath of Vietnam. I don't think every line landed, but enough of them landed well to make this a worthwhile read.
