The Boys of My Youth by Jo Ann Beard

5.0

Clear prose. Poetic. Beard picks the exact details that matter whether the story is mundane, everyday, life or a once-in-a-lifetime occurance.

The Road by Cormac McCarthy

5.0

Sensory, even to overload. Sad and hopeful. Meager and layered. In my top ten favorite.
