I'm thoroughly enjoying the second story in this this collection on a stormy evening. Dawkins has quite a fascinating way with words. I want to be her friend.
Not pictured: Princess Elliott in a crown and ballet slippers, because every day is #TiaraTuesday. 👸🏻
shawnmooney Oooooh, is that the one with the characters Jimmy and her husband Burt the Trader? If so, that was probably my favorite in the book! 7y
saresmoore @shawnmooney Yes! Good memory! It was weirdly wonderful, with tangents into meta reflection and characters described so vividly to begin with, then left undeveloped. The story felt unfinished, but I suppose that's the only way it could have been, given the subject matter. Her quirky descriptions and long sentences are reminding me of Elspeth Barker a bit.

andrew61 I've not heard of this author but it looks very good, more book hunting! 7y
saresmoore @andrew61 She's a wonderful writer with a really unique storytelling style. She was a friend & contemporary of (and more or less mentored by) Flannery O'Connor. Her writing is based mostly in the American South (Georgia) & Southwest (New Mexico). 7y
