Fatal Window Mythology

Having now read two Louise Penny books, I can say with confidence that the best thing about her novels is how well she knows the people in them. She loves her characters truly, madly, deeply, and with discernment - and by so doing, lights her writing from within.

It's a slight exaggeration to say I read Dorling Kindersley books for the page layout. I also read them for the pictures. A fine example of its breed.

Window Poems, by Wendell Berry
It's very rare that I finish reading a library book and immediately turn to purchasing it. Actually, I'm not sure I ever have before. Let that stand as a fiercely meant recommendation (at least for those of you whose hearts beat dirt and snow and trees and sky) - and I'll give the rest of my thoughts on this book a post of their own.
