A review by raychelllibby
All the Little Live Things by Wallace Stegner
5.0
[ Hardcover First Edition borrowed from the library with stamps in the back dating back to the mid 70’s]
I shouldn’t review this book. I wanted to roll around on the ground clutching it to my chest mumbling my love for the writing, for the characters… for Ruth.
I don’t know what else to say. I’d feel like an imbecile trying to find something clever to write after reading those words.
I will say, that, this feeling right now, after reading this book, is like a nostalgic flashback into my own heart.
I don’t know how this author creates such rich worlds, characters, insight, humor and nature into one fantastic yet simply story, but I can’t wait to soak up everything else he has ever written.
