Book Review of The Water Is Wide

The Water Is Wide
Hophead avatar reviewed on + 285 more book reviews


This is one of Conroy's nonfiction books, but still ranks among the best of any story-teller's works. The reader quickly identifies with Conroy's challenges and comes to love his approach to teaching. This is a fun book to read despite knowing in advance the unsatisfactory ending. Highly recommended.
