Book Reviews of Five Quarters of the Orange: A Novel (P.S.)
Book Review: Quirky characters, rich writing
Summary: 5 Stars
What an excellent choice for a book club discussion! The quirky, odd, strange characters will keep you talking (or thinking) for hours. Narrator Flamboise alludes to a mystery at the very beginning of the book which is slowing revealed like a fisherman letting out his line. Masterfully, it will keep you reading to the last page. Beyond the compelling story itself, Harris' writing style is very evocative of the places she describes and her language has a beautiful literary quality without being unwieldy or pretentious. Most excellent!
