Epic!
Before I read a review of Leif Enger's latest novel I was completely unaware of his work! I am thrilled to have finally discovered him and now simply have to read his previous books! "I Cheerfully Refuse" is a keeper, which means I must purchase it and add it to my collection (I borrowed it from the library)!
It is masterfully written, eloquent and will resonate with the reader for a long, long time! Love and loss and grief and searching and a dystopian landscape filled with wonderful souls and horribly cruel people and so much more. I am not going to share details, this is a work you need to consume with an open mind and enjoy the experience.
One of many quotes I found worthy of being embedded in my memory: "What scares me is the notion we are all one rotten moment, one crushed hope or hollow stomach from stuffing someone blameless in a cage."
Who needs to read this book, well-everyone, but especially those who love literary fiction!
