I’ve been reading some beautiful fiction this year, and I just posted a review of a book by one of my favorite authors, Leif Enger. (https://therestfulhome.com/brave-young-handsome-review/ in your browser, or click on the link in my Instagram profile) If you don’t have time to read the book, though, here’s just a quote or two for your enjoyment:
🎼
“Death arrived easy as the train; [he] just climbed aboard, like the capable traveler he was.”
🛤️
On riding a horse: “You are a feeble and tenuous being; the only thing a horse wants from you is your absence.” 🐎 😄
