Slow meditative look at a woman's life in N.C., from about age 20 to 94, from her viewpoint, well-written and full of family secrets, problems like dark depression, and thoughts on race relations, forgiveness, etc. I recommend it, but it's the only fiction I've read by him. I've heard, Kate Vaiden, is good also. This may not be for those who want something fast or exciting. (Totally opposite from the last book I've read.)

Tamra Sounds interesting! Stacked 3y
KCofKaysville @Tamra. It's pretty good, but it's probably better to read Kate Vaiden first. 3y
