Birgitta Hjalmarson and 2 other people liked Jan's review of Fylgia: "A very moving story set in an unfamiliar land and time. Anna Larrson is the youngest daughter in her family, her father being a respected member of their small village. Life revolves around their church in more ways than one. Alternating between t..."

This is a horrible, beautiful book. Horrible, because it forces the reader to confront the worst of human nature, that which surfaces when the layer of “civilization” breaks. Beautiful, because much of it is set on the Fiji Islands, a landscape indif ...more

Perhaps it’s true. All the stories have already been told. It’s the telling that sets them apart. No One Is Coming to Save Us has been compared to The Great Gatsby. Gatsby, I think, gets in the way. I’d rather start without him. North Carolina. Old fa ...more
