Miriam Toews is rapidly becoming one of my favourite authors, and Women Talking is only solidifying that stance.

There’s nothing I could say that could emulate the beauty of this book and what a pleasure it was to read, so I’ll leave you with my favourite quote:

“What good is it to be alive if you are not in the world?” (Toews 215).
