man, the sections get real tough here and there, huh… not that plainsong was all that cheery but that one feels borderline breezy in comparison. still very good and engrossing, as was to be expected. haruf knows how to paint a picture and flesh out a town without ever doing more than needed

i think haruf continues to be an author that younger me would be immensely confused i enjoy as much as i do. but there is just something about the sparseness and the tenderness of these stories that pulls me in every time. also i am still looking for my great american novel, so perhaps this is a step in that direction.
