Book Review: 10x better than the movies
Summary: 4 Stars
That two of the three novellas in this book have been produced as motion pictures should tell you something. In fact, when I first read this collection I thought each of the three stories sounded like fleshed-out Hollywood 'treatments'. The writing is tight and concise, yet stunningly poignant. Harrison's true calling is as a poet, and he uses that training to full effect, creating crystal-clear images in the turn of a phrase. The result is never abstract, however; Harrison is also an outdoorsman whose knowledge of nature is equaled by his uncanny ability to portray his characters' surroundings in lucid, even beautiful prose. Read this book. You may become a Harrison adict.
