Book Reviews of The Bridge of San Luis Rey (Perennial Classics)
Book Review: Not just for people interested in Christian ethics.
Summary: 4 Stars
Written gracefully, descriptively and economically, The Bridge of San Luis Rey is the story of five people who die when the small rope bridge they are walking across collapses. Thornton Wilder was known as a Christian Humanist but his book transcends religious convictions and poses interesting and pertinent questions about destiny and what responsibilities we take for our own. The answers are also provided, if hidden and the overiding conviction that of compassion and the powers of love.
