Fly Away Peter by David Malouf
4.0
This book can feel a little aimless sometimes, as the characters don't have much personality and there is little to no plot, but I find that to be common in books of this length, and I love it all the same.
The poetic style of writing is gorgeous and really makes me feel as if I'm there. Honestly, David Malouf is a fantastic writer. And, I'm always a fan of fruity undertones in literature, of which there was plenty between Jim and almost every male character, especially Ashley. The ending of the book is haunting, and yet oddly calming in a way.
