A Long Time Ago
Once upon a time there lived four little children named Martha, Little Joanie, Johnny, and Barbara. They lived in Badger, Iowa, a little town of 300 Norwegian farmers. Here they are sitting on the curb in front of Little Joanie and Barbara’s daddy’s second hand truck that he used to haul stuff to put in his corner grocery store.
Martha and Johnny were brother and sister. Little Joanie was Barba

“And then the rains came. They came down from the hills and up from the sound. And it rained a sickness. And it rained a fear. And it rained an odor. And it rained a murder. And it rained dangers and pale eggs of the beast. Rain poured for days, unceasing. Flooding occurred. The wells filled with reptiles. The basements filled with fossils. Mossy-haired lunatics roamed the dripping peninsulas. Moisture gleamed on the beak of the raven. Ancient Shaman's rained from their homes in dead tree trunks, clacked their clamshell teeth in the drowned doorways of forests. Rain hissed on the freeway. It hissed at the prows of fishing boats. It ate the old warpaths, spilled the huckleberries, ran into the ditches. Soaking. Spreading. Penetrating. And it rained an omen. And it rained a poison. And it rained a pigment. And it rained a seizure.”

I saw The Red Tent on your want to read list.It became one of my favorite books after our book club read it years ago. I think you will enjoy it. I remember commenting at the time, that there should be a modern-day version of the Red Tent.
Loved it. If you enjoy a well written story, with characters & locales that you actually love & hate read this! Ms. Stoner's book shouldn't be pigeon holed to "fantasy; sci-fi. It's a story of love & is written almost as a. Folk Tale. There is a bit of something for everyone in this book. Like a hearty stew, a pinch if this,a dash if Grateful Dead,a good pound of imagery, a handful of. Harleys, a few mushrooms for texture...all tossed in a pot like a fishbowl in Door County, YOTC satisfied me & after it settled, I want some more.
Seems I remember putting it on a list of "books to read" some time back, and going over the Goodreads suggstions reminded me. Soon.
