Book Reviews of Bear (Nonpareil books)
Book Review: A Special Paradise for the few
Summary: 5 Stars
And like all paradises, transient, for without loss, a paradise does not exist.
Marian Engel weaves a dense, exposed little world for her character and the reader, I'm not sure I can say more than the other reviewers, but only express my joy with the book. It's funny to see what is disturbing for some, tepid for others, and downright heaven incarnate in the north woods for others.
