Out Stealing Horses byPer Petterson

I liked this book for the unique way it was written in the viewpoint of the main character. It went back and forth from his thoughts as an old man to those of his youth. The sketch of his life gradually unfolded like a mystery and the reader was left to fill in details from his/her imagination.
It was an interesting story that was thought-provoking and beautifully written.
